He stated that the event was successful in showcasing the beauty of batik collections that genuinely reflect Indonesian culture and values.
"We appreciate this event," the ambassador stated.
Meanwhile, Ambassador of Hungary to Indonesia, Lilla Karsay, said that she was delighted to have the opportunity to take part in the cultural fashion show.
She noted that she had earlier come to the palace to participate in a fashion show of kebaya, a traditional female costume in Indonesia.
The ambassador also expressed joy at being able to personally participate in Sunday's event with representatives from the Indonesian government and parliament.
Karsay spoke of having received gifts in the form of batik fabric, which she usually brought back to Hungary. She said she would usually ask a tailor in her country to transform the batik fabric into clothing.
