Due to geographical environmental factors, including natural factors, human factors or a combination of both. Especially for this puta dino woven fabric product, there is a combination of both factors, namely human factors and natural factors with geographical conditions that greatly influence. It can be seen from the human resources of ngofa Tidore, young people of Tidore with special skills in weaving and in making interesting, unique and regional motifs that are not owned by other regions. "Reputation, quality, and certain characteristics of the goods and/or products produced" To determine whether a good and/or product has IG potential, it is also very important to prove that the product also has a strong name and reputation. This is related to the typical Tidore woven cloth, which has existed for centuries and is a reconstruction of identity whose materials are obtained partly from history, local wisdom and human resources that have skills that are not the same as the region and other potential areas owned by the Tidore Historical Depth .

The steps taken by the local government, both in the inventory stage or completing the documents needed in the protection cooperation, are intended to maintain matters related to the uniqueness of Tidore so that no claims of ownership from other regions have been made. The initiators of the woven fabric or the Ngofa Tidore weaver community have never come and 2130 | P a g e https://dinastires. org/JLPH Vol. No. February 2025 conveyed to the relevant Legal Section regarding Puta Dino, this has only been conveyed by According to the author, the tendency for legal protection is still passive, there are no preventive steps because it is not directly attempted by the local government (Ade, 2. In fact, this protection effort is important to be carried out with a major initiative by the regional government as the main policy maker, this is due to the non-utilization of the facilities provided by the central government, namely the Intellectual Property Rights system with several fields, especially Geographical Indications in accordance with the potential of the region associated with its geographical area (Setiawan. Sulistianingsih, & Kusumaningtyas, 2. Especially those related to regional products that have a long history and their own characteristics, such as this Puta Dino Kayangan woven cloth. The initiator of Tidore woven cloth. Anita Gathmir, conveyed it via WhatsApp phone call, taking the time out of her busy teaching schedule in Jakarta. Enthusiastic about the concern for the culture of the nation where she was born with the spirit and persistence in building and developing the potential of Human Resources and Natural Resources. According to the author, based on the explanation of the initiator of the woven cloth, the Tidore City Government seems not to pay attention to the Tidore Woven UKM in Soasio, this is felt to be very sad when there is a spirit of ideas and creativity of the nation's children that are poured out are not supported by the local government and this is a disgrace because it is for the sake of the interests and benefits of the Tidore community and will have an impact on the image of the region being raised (Peter, 2. The author also interviewed Wahdania, a weaver and administrator of the Puta Dino Kayangan Weaving House, she conveyed regarding the innovation of woven fabrics to increase the amount of productivity along with the development of consumer demand, its influence in the process of revitalizing Tidore woven fabrics in exploring their motifs with the aim of restoring the weaving culture that was lost a hundred years ago. However, lately, last August, the increasing consumer demand has overwhelmed us, both for use in fashion shows in Jakarta or orders from institutions and usually our customers from Bank Indonesia hold the latest fashion events organized by Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) this is because the beginning of the making of this weaving was in collaboration with BI. Purchase Figure 1. Purchase of Weaving Fabrics 2131 | P a g e https://dinastires. org/JLPH Vol. No. February 2025 In terms of product price, starting from 500 to 1,500 thousand rupiah, depending on the materials used and the order. However, the constraints in the materials because the basic materials used such as yarn purchased from India and China are very expensive. For the production tools of Tenun cloth are still from abroad. According to the author, based on the explanation of one of the managers of the Tenun House and the weaver, the Tidore Islands City Government should have a subsidy channel provided, but the government in providing even to appreciate in the form of assistance does not exist. The Tidore City Government is not trying to maximize commodities in Tidore to get protection, either through the Tourism sector or the Trade Industry and Cooperatives (Perindako. sector, nothing has been proposed. In terms of legal protection, for example, efforts to encourage Puta Dino woven cloth, which is a local craft product to obtain Geographical Indication recognition as the origin of woven cloth products, how the ability and expertise of the community since generations, hundreds of years to maintain the sustainability of local products and the carrying capacity of the topography of the region . eographical aspect. which are key factors in maintaining the reputation of the product are certainly a strong social base in the midst of economic competition and the possibility of violations of the law on a product produced. According to the author, the role of the Tidore Islands City government in inventorying regional characteristics in the form of local products. Processed Products, etc. must be carried out. Attention to woven fabrics in the original area of preservation of weaving is very vital because it is related to traditional knowledge and geographical carrying capacity that will become a pilot project area for planting natural fibers for woven fabric materials, namely yarn. For the author, as interviews and research conducted, the enthusiasm and support of the Tidore Islands City Government and its people in efforts to preserve the culture of woven fabrics and develop local products in helping the work of Tidore children is still very minimal, as evidenced by direct interviews with related parties. The local government through certain business entities should continue to encourage the Tidore Ngofa Community to continue to produce and develop typical Tidore woven fabrics. The Regional Government can encourage the protection of Geographical Indications for woven fabrics and other products that have been marketed either in groups or individually based on the management of SMEs and others. making Tidore City a pilot project for the preservation of national natural fibers. Furthermore, the government's focus is to pay attention to the productivity of woven fabrics, aid channels by facilitating needs, providing assistance and supporting the creativity of the nation's children by appreciating. CONCLUSION Protection of Geographical Indication of Puta Dino Kayangan woven fabric is very important because Puta Dino woven fabric is an entity that has long been a characteristic of the This is done to maintain the woven fabric from the aspect of its original sustainability. The Tidore Islands City Government has not focused and is not serious enough in realizing the protection of Geographical Indications for Puta Dino Kayangan woven cloth. Puta Dino woven cloth is a typical Tidore craft product that should receive guidance as regulated in Article 70 of Law No. 20 of 2016 concerning Trademarks and Geographical Indications, which states that socialization and understanding of protection.
