<![CDATA[In the village of Serenan, in Surtanan, there is a group of batik that has the activity of nyerat (writing) cloth using batik wax. This activity is carried out according to orders from batik entrepreneurs from several regions in Solo and Yogyakarta. The order is in the form of a pattern (writing/image) that has been determined by the batik entrepreneur. Based on initial observations, it is known that there are several problems that become obstacles for these craftsmen. These obstacles, among others, the Surtanan batik group, chaired by Sri Suyamti, was originally a regional community development program under the guidance of batik entrepreneurs and the district government.
