This news flash is about one of Prima's oldest partners and friends, as said in the introduction. Tan, or 'sifu' Tan has been working on Inoculum and other Gaharu related issues since 2003, and where there once 4 Chinese brothers in this business it is in the end Tan and Wong, and their company in Pahang called TW Agarwood, that remains standing in Malaysia.

​

Brother Tan is called 'sifu' which means master or teacher by the Prima Staff because he has been the teacher from our plantation staff on issues like inoculation and distilling and others and Brother Wong is the Marketing and PR Manager from TW Agarwood. I believe that there will be a lot of news about these two in the future and I promised them I would make them a website as well in the future, so as soon as there is news about that I will flash it here in our website.

​

What you will see in the film is the distilling and crushing and chipping of Agarwood (mostly Sinensis) and the Research and Development of the new species Khynam (you can read more about that in the news flash from the 25th of January on this website). I have recently had a meeting with our agent Mark in Malaysia, and he was also very happy to see and learn so much about what matters in the Gaharu Industry. In the end the film above really says it all; enjoy taking a look at it.

 

I do apologise that the narration is in the Indonesian (or Malay) language but subtitles will follow on this little movie, and than I will upload it again, and replace this one. There is still enough to see in the film even when you do not understand what is being said.
