Every nation has a cultural characteristic. For instance, if you talk about Indonesia then everyone will noded the head if batik is the native cultural symbol of this land. Batik has been in Indonesia since 1500's and became an heirloom noble heritage of our ancestors.
Besides Batik actually there are other products that deserve as a souvenirs for our friends, and i think that will be a golok or parang (traditional machete, native long blade). I was quite often give some farewell gift to the foreigners friend by giving him a golok, machete. Its a trully Indonesia. In the men's point of view, single blade like golok is a natural necessity in many culture arround the globe. Men carrying weapons, and this is the normal way. So it's normal when we handed over our comrade a single golok to show our respected on the friendship. The rich diversity of golok or machete type are quite wide in our land. Each region has different characteristics, different motif and ornaments, part of it as an art or others as a mystical value.
I dont want give a farewell gift like a luxury pen to my colleague. That won't represent enough about my country, no way. Golok or traditional knife will be on my head first *** hsgautama.blogspot.com
