    The hand made woven fabrics produced by Baduy people proves that in spite of their illiteracy, they have such a delicate artistic talent. This talent have been handed down from generation to generation over the millenia without any formal education system. We must protect them. We have to protect their heritage, their uniqueness of culture, social life and environtment and at the same time we must also persuade them to unveil their 'taboo' as not to bring their children to school. Visit Baduy Village is volunteering in media making for Baduy, the people of Kanekes.
