Toli-Toli in Indonesia
Toli-Toli villages are small and comprise houses on stilts. Toli-Toli living on the coast are often fishermen, while those in the hills typically cultivate rice in unirrigated fields, as well as corn and sago. The Toli-Toli process high-quality spices such as cloves, as well as copra and cocoa. Because of the many coastal areas, the Toli-Toli area is rich in marine products such as fish, seaweed, etc. Currently, the government is in the process of doing international trade with East Kalimantan province, Malaysia, and the Philippines, known as Totata (Toli-Toli - Tarakan - Tawau) and Tosamin (Toli Toli - Sabah - Mindanao). These are expected to bring many work and business opportunities.
