In 2009, UNESCO designated batik as a Masterpiece of Oral
and Intangible Heritage of Humanity, recognizing it as a global icon of
Indonesia's artistry.
Batik's popularity has increased, and it is now worn by many Indonesians as semi-compulsory office attire.
Indonesians celebrate Batik Day on October 2nd to
commemorate the beauty of batik, its origins, and the communities that
have been crafting it for generations.
