The way Indochina people lives in their community has been very simple. Most of the families are extended families, looked after by their elders. Everyone shares, within the family and between the families. The aromatic village of Indochina people where they produce aromatic product is the same, the owner of the business is like the father who looks after his family. At Karmakamet, we started out within our family with our old recipes brought from china, later when the product has become well known because of its quality, we had to expand the business through hiring our relative and neighbors who live in our community. By slowly expanding the business in this way, each one of us are well trained and because of our attitude of living and sharing, we share our knowledge to keep Karmakamet its best quality.

Karmakamet Hotel history

There  are different kinds of people in Aromatic products community:

The owners of the business who can effort to have their children send aboard e.g. Penang for the better education. When their sons and daughters are back to their homeland, they brought back western culture which influence Penang at that time with them, this can be notified by the way they dress, the way they have their house and the interior done. Even though, they were influenced by western culture, they still keep the community’s simple way of living.

Other than that, there are trusted workers, usually close relatives, working as clerk taking care of the money matter.

Most of the lower level workers were sent to work with the community by their parents who supplies raw materials such as herbs to the community, hoping that their sons and daughters could learn how to make the aromatic products. Then, there were love, within the group of workers, between the workers and the owner’s relatives. This is where our extended family begins.

The build that once was large enough for every one now too small, and ready to be expanded. The different types of architecture were added to the original building. The details of each section defy the status of the family who lives in. The floor of the owner room lined with the colorful imported tiles in contrast with the floor of the workers’ rooms that are lined with wood, or if they are a bit luckier, instead of wood, it could be the polished granite floor with blaze lining plus they could be gifted with the old furniture from Shanghai that the owner does not want anymore because he now likes the western influenced furniture better. All the old ceramic wares with the colorful glaze also are given away to the workers; some of them are still in set with the lids some of them the lids were missing because there were always kids running around in the family and break things. But, in the end, no matter what type the room is, luxury or not luxury, all of the rooms were build the best way they could be build. All the furniture in all the rooms, expensive or not expensive, was made with the best materials of each kind that could be found, with the best quality of craftsmanship.
