the suppleness of this approach allows us to be sensitive to the cultural mores of bali’s unique environment but also requires us to be in a constant state of watchfulness that business is indeed being conducted as agreed. with so many clothing brands now producing in bali , we’ar now of the mindset that it is time to initiate an effort to create an ethical manufacturing charter that is unique to bali (rather than indonesia at large) and also put a peer review system in place. we’ar challenging ourselves to make substantial progress on this by the end of this year and welcome contributions from external agencies and collaborations with other brands and individuals.
