Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya
Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya is located on Labuan Burung, Buer, Sumbawa Island, West Nusa Tenggara. Created because there was no Poklahsar ever built in the area, and CEF with PPL Fisheries in Buer, decided to create one under the name of Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya
Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya aims to bring together all potential of whom that have similar ideals, vision and mission in an effort to improve welfare, especially competence in processing fishery products. Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya functions as a forum for every women that has interest to grow a skill on the business of fish-based processed product to improve skills, knowledge and adaptability in technology through various processing training.
In Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya, their main commodity is ikan tongkol or small tuna in English, so we trained them to enhance the economic value of tongkol by not only selling the tongkol in general, but we also trained them to gain more value of it by making something bigger from it. So, we trained them how to make Tongkol Fish Crackers.
After several failure attempts, we finally succeeded on making the best flavour for the Tongkol Fish Crackers. Then, after that, we taught them how to package the Tongkol Fish crackers properly and how to sell them directly or digitally to the consumer.
The training that we conduct for Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya and for every Poklahsar that we have in general is to be able to improve the quality of human resources, so that they can participate in improving welfare, increasing income so that they can always behave in upholding human rights, caring for the social and environment in a harmonious life and balance in social life.
Until this present moment, Poklahsar Wanita Berkarya continue to strive to improve the ability to utilize fisheries resources sustainably and continue to expect assistance and coaching from field instructors Of the Sumbawa Maritime and Fisheries Service Department or other parties.
