According to the public relations and international affairs report of Qeshm Persian Gulf Bio-Technology Park, Ms. Faiqa Askari, a creative and entrepreneurial woman in Hormozgan handicrafts sector and the promoter of the National Home Business Development Plan, said: My field of activity is handicrafts, which I have spent about 27 years of my life in this path. My mother was in charge of handicrafts in Bandarlange city, and I followed my mother's footsteps and my great interest in handicrafts. Handicrafts requires special people, many people are enthusiastic and fans of handicrafts, but they do not follow it as a job and economic activity because it is not economical.

In addition, this art and craft attracts people who are in love and interested, and therefore I have always looked at my work with love.

In the field of mat weaving, we also operate in the field of training, production and supply. As an entrepreneur and executive, we work together with these people, and if there are no artisans and artists, I will never succeed on my own, and this cycle will stop moving.

This year, we are present at Jahanbar Bandar Abbas Exhibition, Bandar Lange Exhibition and also in Isfahan on behalf of Bandar Abbas Creative City. Before the spread of Corona virus, we used to export to the countries of the Persian Gulf region, especially Oman, but the presence of this disease and being in special conditions prevented us from doing so.
