For NTT woven fabric, Ayu has even promoted it in various prestigious cultural exhibitions in Europe.
"I myself have a special concern for this weaving. When NTT's weaving became national news a decade ago, I participated in promoting it to important cities in foreign countries. One of them was during a cultural tour and diplomacy in London where I promoted the distinctive characteristics of regional weaving," said Ayu Azhari speaking at the Wabiner Exotic Woven Fabric Festival in Kupang, NTT, together with Julie Sutrisno Laisodat, the wife of the Governor of NTT, Dr. Victor Laiskodat, and Ricky, a representative from Bank Indonesia," Tuesday (23/3/2021).

The wife of musician Mike Tramp hopes that the Exotic Tenun Fest, which takes place for three days in Kupang, NTT, will bring about change for the people of NTT with strong coaching and entrepreneurial spirit.
"NTT has long been the center of the world, a religious type of society, with the majority of devout religious followers, also having the best Theology education center, world-class in the land of Flores. Well, this capital can be further developed from religious diplomacy to the new global challenge in UMKM Goes Global," said Ayu.
