What is known from South Kalimantan, in addition to the unique market flotation ? One is the Martapura diamond market in the city of Martapura. Martapura known also as the students city  in Kalimantan, because there are boarding Darussalam. The city was originally named Kayutangi which is the capital of the Sultanate of Banjar (last in the reign of Sultan Adam).

Martapura Diamonds

Actual quality of the diamonds in Indonesia especially in Martapura is a good quality diamond in the world, so many tourists who targeted the diamond especially which still form a material that has not been processed. They buy the material to be brought out of the country and there they were processed with the high-tech tool that produces beautiful diamond jewelry, elegant and luxurious. Surely they will sell the diamonds to the world market with it is prices more expensive than the origin.

Ironic indeed, we are only able to sell diamonds with traditional still processing so cannot produce quality Diamond jewelry that can be sold at high prices too. The challenge for the Indonesian government how to empower entrepreneurs and craftsmen diamonds in order to produce a classy product.
