Also you can download copy of Sarang Walet export guideline from Ministry of Trade of Republic of Indonesia from:- http://www.kemendag.go.id/publikasi_regulasi/#

Mana / Apa tu RFID?? Itu apanama Dr Baju Kuning memang berani cuba con semua kah? U dari bintang ET atau bulan Mars ke?

Probably those scumbeg buggers will say, 'tak happy, balik Indonesia' ..

The way it goes farmers will be forced to export thru Indonesia, better than thru 1-finger middle gang under the cronies.

Indonesia Siap Ekspor Sarang Burung Walet ke Republik Rakyat China
Setelah menunggu sekian lama akhirnya pemerintah Republik Indonesia mengeluarkan Peraturan Menteri Perdagangan Nomor 51/M-DAG/PER/7/2012 tanggal 27 Juli 2012, tentang Ketentuan Ekspor Sarang Burung Walet ke Republik Rakyat China.

Permendag ini merupakan petunjuk pelaksanaan tentang eksport sarang burung walet ke RRC, setelah Republik Indonesia dan Republik Rakyat China menandatangani Protokol Persyaratan Higenitas, Karantina dan Pemeriksaan untuk Importasi Produk Sarang Burung Walet dari Indonesia ke China antara Kementerian Pertanian Republik Indonesia dan Administrasi Umum Pengawasan Mutu, Inspeksi dan Karantina Republik Rakyat China (Protocol of Inspection, Quarantine and Hygiene Requirements for the Importation of Bird Nest Products from Indonesia to China between the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China) yang ditandatangani pada tanggal 24 April 2012.

Dalam Peraturan Menteri Perdagangan (PERMENDAG) tersebut di atas disebutkan bahwa Ekspor Sarang Burung Walet hanya dapat dilakukan oleh perusahaan yang telah mendapat pengakuan sebagai ET -SBW (Eksportir Terdaftar - Sarang Burung Walet) dari Menteri perdagangan.
ET - SBW adalah perusahaan perorangan maupun badan usaha yang berbadan hukum atau bukan badan hukum yang melakukan kegiatan usaha ekspor sarang burung walet.

Untuk mendapatkan pengakuan sebagai ET - SBW, perusahaan dapat mengajukan permohonan secara tertulis kepada Direktur Jenderal, dalam hal ini Direktur Ekspor Produk Pertanian dan Kehutanan, dengan dilampiri dokumen berikut:
a. fotokopi Surat Izin Usaha Perdagangan (SIUP) atau izin usaha dari kementerian teknis/lembaga pemerintahan non kementerian/instansi;
b. fotokopi Tanda Daftar Perusahaan (TDP);
c. fotokopi Nomor Pokok Wajib Pajak (NPWP);
d. fotokopi surat bukti kepemilikan unit pengolahan sendiri yang sudah mendapatkan Sertifikasi Nomor Kontrol Veteriner (NKV); dan
e. Berita Acara Pemeriksaan fisik oleh Tim Verifikasi dan Monitoring Kebijakan Ekspor Sarang Burung Walet yang ditetapkan oleh Direktur Jendral.

Direktur Jenderal akan menerbitkan pengakuan sebagai ET-SBW paling lambat 5 (lima) hari kerja terhitung sejak permohonan diterima secara lengkap dan benar.

Direktur Jenderal menyampaikan setiap ET - SBW kepada Lembaga Registrasi Akreditasi dan Sertifikasi China dan ET - SBW tersebut harus terdaftar di Lembaga Registrasi Akreditasi dan Sertifikasi China.

PERMENDAG ini dapat di download di KETENTUAN EKSPOR SARANG BURUNG WALET KE REPUBLIK RAKYAT CHINA

Dengan adanya Permendag ini, sudah tidak ada lagi hambatan untuk ekspor langsung ke negeri tirai bambu, dan dengan demikian ekspor SBW dari Indonesia ke China tidak lagi harus melalui negara ke tiga seperti melalui Hongkong dan Singapura.
Harapan kita bersama, dengan lancarnya ekspor ke RRC maka harga sarang burung mentahan yang sekarang terpuruk akan bangkit kembali dan harapannya permintaan RRC akan sarang burung walet meningkat seiring dengan membaiknya pertumbuhan ekonomi di China.

Terima kasih kepada Menteri Perdagangan yang telah peduli dengan ekspor sarang burung walet dan melakukan terobosan yang sangat baik untuk kelancaran ekspor sarang burung walet ke China. INDONESIA BISA!!!

Read the same Wiki article before I purchased the ultrasonic humidifier.

Own solutions are:-
i. Installed flexible pipe from vent hole direct to humidifier air inlet to supply cleaner air from outside the BH rather than re-circulating dirty BH internal air.
ii. clean ultrasonic head with piece of cloth and drain out all water inside the humidifier every visit.
iii. Replace rubber hose with PE pipe. Extreme algae growth inside the rubber hose causing water contamination thus dirty heads. Hoping to prolong ultrasonic head lifespan with cleaner water.

So far so good after 1 yr.

Selamat Hari Raya and happy holidays!

Anyone watch NTV7 10.30pm news last night?

They already bulldozed their way, claiming only very few protested on RFID and going to sign agreement with China. Aiyo, why this Chua Junior sitting besides apanama Amar also smiling keeping mum leh. You fello memang boleh lah. Who cares protest? Got in bulldozer all old trees young trees mother of all trees and Taiping rain trees also gone with the wind. Who cares really. Tat's the way how cronies work mah.

So sit tight and shut up! Our way or no way! Follow Amar way and NO say PLLEEZEE! 1-M Finger pointing to all!

Ya man, initially met typical con-man in town like many pak blogger attack, rats attack, musang near attack, mad man who owns nearby BH 'attack' (complained to authority noisy but mine quietest, sound probably reflected from his own BH ), touch wood no owl attack but watching closely, now Amar attack, RFID attack ... I am born a fisherman with 30+ crazy fishing experience, even no fish also can imagine fish biting so can still tahan no give up spirit .. . Else, could have give up long ago.

Many successful pioneers in town incl. old friend's mega highrise buildings for birds now also struggling with late comers. Collecting key for a new shop soon, initially intend for the birds but now can very sure forget about this industry just sell it off. At least at good tenable location. Thank God never buy an inflated agriland in the middle of no where, no turning back now. Good luck all ecoparks and cronies.

There are better investments else where with better return than this industry esp in Western peninsular towns. Thank you Amar and team for killing this industry. Future probably control by few swiftlet cartels. The rest can eat grass nests or own swiftlet nests.

Nice blog from Charles, in remembrance of his good work. May be something good to ponder besides $$$ and birds.

Sifu WW,

May be you can elaborate so newbies will have clearer picture before they put their hard earned blood and tears money into this industry. Guess out of town or agri land BHs share similar or higher risk compare town BHs.

Correct if wrong. May be I was thinking too much over the past years but here are some of the risks tat I think make sense now and glad didn't follow mad herd instinct rush during the peak investing in agri BHs:-

i. Investing average 300k for a structure exclude land price in the middle of no where aka agriland is like investing in failed townships like Bukit Beruntung, Lembah Beringin in the mid '90. Building can do nothing, ground floor cant rent to cover bank interest. Only hope is nests. One way ticket either to heaven or hell

ii. For some reason, failure rate in agriland seems higher than towns. Correct if wrong. May be farm BHs less, hidden, far separated so concentration of bird population less for eyes to see so visually look less than town but during last hour mad rush different story.

iii. Higher predators attacked inside BH as described above ie owls, eagles, snakes, men, ghosts, sharks ..

iv. Higher predators attacked outside BHs ie men, ghosts, sharks ..

v. Reason i) alone says it all. Do or die. No u-turn esp during downturn unless some buyer/Savior willing to takeover at dirt cheap price

vi. Agriland higher investment cost if you are not big plantation or existing land owners. Land + BHs min 500k depends on locality. Bank only willing to loan up to 60% of land valuation excluding cost of Bhs. Bank willing to loan cost of shop house (land+building) to 70%. Town Bhs at least can afford min cost of converting only top floor, risk of 20-30k gone. Ground floor/1st floor still rentable or to do own business.

No offense. Hope to give clearer picture of risks investors subjected to when invest in agri BHs vs town BHs. So far think many agri Bhs suffer in silence unless you are cash rich land/Bhs in cash; and of course many success stories too so need to hear both sides stories.

Many thank WW for clarification.

Your friend must be the smartest of all. Some successful folks in my hometown investing near a million for each BH in town. Again, these pioneers already pocketed their funds from first few successful BHs so can roll. If gomen rules change, wonder what are they going to do with these mega buildings?

Some states councils are happily collecting extra income from licensing. While other states are less friendly. If anything happen to towns BHs, guess we shall see many billions disappeared from livelihood of town folks. At presence highly competitive global economy with dipping FDI, gomen running on deficit for near 15 yrs, basically they are committing own kamikazi and at the same time kill rest of the nation esp those in towns if ruling imposed. Just my 2 cents.

Perhilitan signboard on the nest export still at KLIA as I left the airport early this week. Just a banner behind the column. Nobody bother to look at it with current market.

Oii, just buang tu banner lah. Truly eyes sore.

While Pakatan Bird and Barisan Nest fighting each others, we the Barisan Rakyat the two party system supporters told the Pakatan Bird hey guys/gals, you people outdated already lah. What is Ubah??

Kami rakyat now toking not about Ubah. Kami toking kasi BUANG masuk tong sampah, TUKAR!


ps:- Next time anyone go to Korea, go take some photos and show how Korea gomen promote ginseng. Every visitors that visit Korea must bring back Korea ginseng as gifts, else your Korea visit not counted, Korean will ask u 'r u sure u oledi visit Korea?'. Korea can make ginseng sweets for the visitors, how cum Msia tak boleh copy cat make bird nest sweets for our visitors? Kasi taruh cap Halal lagi bagus can jual sama Arabs. Mrs Yen Yen apparently spent wrong money lawatan sambil belajar di Oz and Nz. If they visit Korea may be the industry better now with no more excuses.

While it is illegal for tourists & all to hand carry bird nest out of Penang & KLIA international airports without hassle running around various departments, this is Bangkok International Airport. Biscuit shape like nest selling B$134/g. Small full cup B$150/g. Omar & Chua Junior Burger go sell nasi lemak to foreign tourists la.

All right, with home minister around, focus on the nests. Trying not to get distracted by chicks and eggs ..

I saw huge advertisement board from China company on bird nest some where along the North South Highway towards KL. Tot I was in Guangzhou since hardly see advert in 普通話

Just wish light at end of the tunnel as we celebrate 50th Anniversary of Malaysia. Cheers!

Just got a new amp from Pudu. What is the good and reliable internal amp in the market currently?? Swallow Sound (discontinued) amp that bought earlier still running while Nik***do only last less than 3 yrs old already kaput.

Oh, the sales guy said now price increase his customer sold >2000. Asked him for the contact even offer to pay him commission no no no contact at the moment. Just hearsay.

Just doubt accuracy of info as amp seller also claimed to be BH consultant. In my heart said I oso self made consultant managed to turn dead BH by other consultants alive and kicking now ... hehe

Anyone got contact >2000 pls let all know. Many will even offer for delivery service.

As for now, back to zzz ... till the phone rings.

Guess the ministry prefer people to be non productive, to be more speculative on empty properties than to be genuine productive farmers who generate export income to the nation.

Many would have made even more by investing in empty lands or building in strategic locations in KV and around the country since recent property hike than to invest in swiftlet farming and taking high risk of little nests, predators and worst policy change and harassment from the officers.

All of us dreamers finally come to our senses.

Wow, that's great news for mid to long term

Cronies or kingpins also cannot CURI (bukan CARI) makan so easy and need to fight for survival as pressure from globalization and inter countries free trade agreement building up.

What is bumi / non bumi all these nonsense? End of the day still got to kau tau to mighty China, second largest world economy for trade and investment. You think apanama cronies dan alibaba aka few companies accredited & certified by the ministry can do the same?? LOL .. in their wet dreams

Our hardworking partime domestic helper from Indo once told us .. local here are generally lazy. Someday their children's children will be forced to work in Indonesia.

I swallow my pride and think with my head. Ya, she got a valid point. Even when Fri/Sat off, request Thus 1/2 day to compensate for 'lost' Fri. Better dont work, wait for grandpa handouts.

Good on Johor the leading state. Who dare to invest wins pants down??
