Yes, Pak Ajik. Will need to know what koi variety the participants wants. SPKC will be in Japan this weekend, so they can try to find what you like for this event. As it is, the coming new shipment to SPKC includes:
1. Maruyama top grade tosai
2. Very high grade tosai from Nogami, Oomo and Marusyo
3. Gonjiro sanke
4. Sakai tosai
Item 1 and 3 are high priced koi. Item 4 you can find a lot in Jakarta.
I will personally recommend to consider item 2, Oomo showa. Fujio san is scheduled to come to Malaysia in June. Maybe I can try to get him to be in Jakarta to give a talk on how to select showa and then you can choose your showa for the grow out event. This will be more interesting. You can learn from the master before you do the practical yourselves.
Anyway, its your choice. You tell me what you want and I will ask SPKC to find for you.
I have spoken to Sven and we have even identified which pond at his place to do the grow out.
Cheers
PS: hehehe, another one more reason for me to come to JKT. Pak Robby, please be on the standby....
Pak Ajik,
My congratulations on KOIS and you for have been pioneering the GO Event in collaboration with SPKC and K-Collections. Hope we could have more funs with the events.
SL,
If I could suggest please kindly ask SPKC to give better price for per unit of fish, notewithstanding that shipment cost is inclusive, than the one that SPKC usually holds in Malaysia (of RM 800/fish), but with no less qualities from the leading breeders.
Reasons are simple:
-1- SPKC is supported very well by Japanese leading breeders (including but not limeted Sakai, Omosako, Dainichi, Oomo, Nogami etc) so SPKC could always negotiate a better package price for the new emerging market which is Indonesia.
-2- This kind of event is relatively new for most of Indonesian hobbyists therefore people needs to socialize it first. If the given price is a very reasonable one, people will be more attracted to try (and error) the event.
-3- SPKC practically will have no competitors in hosting this kind of event in Indonesia (because of the above -1-) so the future market will be very promising. SPKC could play with large quantities and it presses the shipment cost as well.
-4- GO event in Indonesia is still a sunrise industry while it might have been sunset in Malaysia and or Singapore due to many koi centers hosting the same events. Again, SPKC should see the potentiality of this market.
-5- Some other reasons that I may not be able to think of
Anyway, the final call is on you/SPKC, I could only suggest.
cheers
