The implementation of TTG is also considered necessary to increase productivity which will affect efforts to strengthen and empower families and community welfare.
Boy Wijanarko Varianto, the Regional Secretary of Natuna Regency, stated above when officially opened the 2023 Natuna Regency Level Appropriate Technology Innovation Competition, held at the Women's Building Hall, Batu Sisir, St. Bukit Arai, Ranai, on Monday (20/03) morning.
Furthermore, Boy also hoped that through the assessment results of the TTG design, it would be possible to establish a prototype and in the future it could be mass-produced to support the achievement of self-sufficiency in regional needs and market demand.
