    TO BECOME A CULTURAL DIPLOMACY AGENTS. Negeri Rempah Foundation and cultural-diplomacy for Spice Route nomination to UNESCO World Cultural Heritage. Source | 27 September 2020 https://jalurrempah.kemdikbud.go.id/artikel/buku-diplomasi-budaya-jalur-rempah-upaya-meraih-pengakuan-unesco In cultural route category, UNESCO has suggested a join proposal among related countries. Initiated by Indonesia, in order to get support from other countries, there are also needs to establish good relations among them. One is through cultural ambassadors exchange. To make the cultural diplomacy agenda a success, the Directorate General of Culture, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology hand-in-hand with the Negeri Rempah Foundation composed guidelines in a book entitled 'Cultural Diplomacy Guidebook'. At the workshop for the preparation of the Guidebook, (28-30/09), the Chair of the Negeri Rempah Foundation, Dewi Kumoratih Kushardjanto, explained, “The cultural diplomacy guidebook was composed to equipped the appointed cultural ambassadors with Indonesian set of values, intercultural insights, understanding of the Spice Route concept, and the reasonings for the Spice Route proposal as a world cultural heritage". She also added, cultural ambassadors who will be appointed by the state are people who are adaptive, skilled in diplomacy, and are able to project indonesia's values and to represent Indonesia in the world. Ratih also explained that the cultural diplomacy should also reflect giving-hands gesture among the countries. This was also conveyed by Dr. Hassan Wirajuda, Indonesia's 2001-2009 Minister of Foreign Affairs who is currently Chair the Board of Trustees for the Negeri Rempah Foundation. This giving-hands gesture is a diplomacy that refers to the relationship between Sriwijaya and Nalanda eras. In their time, Sriwijaya and Nalanda built mutually beneficial cultural diplomatic relations. Sriwijaya for example, initiate a monastery in Nalanda. Through student exchanges, Sriwijaya and Nalanda's relationship has reached its peak. The cultural diplomacy model that occurred in the Sriwijaya era will be an important reference for the Spice Route cultural diplomacy, namely a contribution-based culture by giving more through farmer exchanges, exchanges of scientists, writers, chefs, and so on. This will also be discussed later in the 'Cultural Diplomacy Guidebook'. ***

  • Lalpari Cloves - Spice Cultural Relations between India and Indonesia

    Indonesia is the largest clove exporter to India and Lalpari is the most preferred clove by Indians due to its strong aroma and taste, affordable price and many health benefits. One cultural element that emerged was the naming of Lalpari from the Indian community for cloves produced in the archipelago - Indonesia. Therefore, the Bincang Pasarempah held on late May 21, 2021 was devoted to discussing "Lalpari Cloves - Spice Cultural Relations between India and Indonesia". In this interactive discussion, the Indonesian Consul General in Mumbai and the Chairman of the World Clove Council as representatives of Indian clove entrepreneurs/importers conveyed that there was a need for a unified view on how the parameters of lalpari cloves were in accordance with the market demand in India, which use them for processing food, beverages and medicines. The Lalpari cloves in question have specific characteristics which include reddish brown color, directly picked by hand, a distinctive crown/pistil, drying without a fermentation process, containing oil levels above 18%, containing eugenol levels above 70% and growing in soil types that have high levels of perfect pH where these criterions are very suitable in the territory of Indonesia, based on the council findings from their purchase from Manado area, North Sulawesi. Meanwhile, clove volunteer discussant who represent farmers argue that all types of cloves from the archipelago can be called Lalpari based on their processing method, including those that have a fermentation process, while admitting that cloves in Indonesia are mostly used for the kretek cigarette industry. "Bincang Pasarempah is a routine discussion initiated by Negeri Rempah Foundation to uphold the cultural diplomatic relation through spices economy dynamics".
