The local group's six members can now produce good crafts products of woven bamboo independently. They had done one exhibition together with Shimizu, and one exhibition of their own works in Yogyakarta.
They had given four workshops to a total of 65 participants in Jakarta and Yogyakarta. Besides conducting workshops, Shimizu had also visited bamboo craft center in Surakarta district and Kulonprogo district. He learned the local technique and about building construction with bamboo.
