“The Sigi government, as a proud member of Lingkar Temu Kabupaten Lestari (LTKL), joins hands with various stakeholders, including indigenous communities, local entrepreneurs, and passionate local youth, in a collective eΛort to preserve our forests and biodiversity. Through initiatives like ‘The Treasure of Sigi,’ we weave together the threads of art, culture, and culinary heritage to promote a nature-based economy and sustainable ecotourism,” remarked Ristika Putri Istanti, Head of the Secretariat of LTKL.
