The improvement in the condition of the National Textile and Textile Product (TPT) industry in February has brought fresh air for producers. Although interspersed with the Enactment of Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) which slightly put pressure on sales, in general sales on the domestic market in February were better than in previous months.

The factor of difficulty in containers to tightening import permits has made the market a little relieved from the pressure of imported goods that has plagued the last 5 years. Hopefully this will be a good start for Indonesian producers in an effort to regain control of the domestic market and make it a guarantee for the local product market.

Although COVID-19 will continue to overshadow the performance of the textile industry this year, with the vaccinations that the government is encouraging, hopefully the textile industry can work well and continue to show positive performance.
