| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We focused on efforts to revive Asian traditional textile industries that underwent a decline and have become obsolete amidst cultural modernization. In particular, we compared the revival initiatives for folk clothing industries in Japan, South Korea, and Malaysia, whose governments have shown strong support for reviving these industries. The strong leadership and financial support provided by the local government were instrumental in reviving this important traditional folk clothing industry.
In 1960, Yomitan Village, through its economic development plans, initiated efforts to revive the Yomitanzan hanaori. In the 1980s, as part of their initiatives in restoring cultural traditions, and the local governments introduced programs on continuing the production of Hansan mosi. Under the new economic policy implemented in the 1970s, the Malaysian Handicraft Development Corporation introduced the use of kain songket, which was traditionally used as ceremonial cloth.
