about 75% of the pengusaha use 
hired labor
were also told "50% of the buruh 
work in their own homes"
are 10 large pengusaha who do 
their own marketing and the rest 
setor [[?]] with these 10
- unfortunately only these 10 attended 
our meeting, so no chance to 
observe or talk to the poorer peng-
rajin or smaller peng. ((for 
this reason considered necessary 
to make another trip to Troso later))
- a large peng. is one with about 
50 ATBMs, while a medium 
peng. has 10-20 ATBM's 
below these are peng. who only 
have 1 or 2 ATBM's

-labor situation here very complex,
but a preliminary classification 
of labor would be as follows:
1. large peng. (10) who buy own 
thread, distribute thread to 
other households, hire large
numbers of buruh, receive 
cloth made in other households, 
market the cloth (mainly to 
Bali), get bank loans
2. med. peng. who receive thread 
from the 10 above + setor [[?]] fin-
ished cloth with them also, 
but otherwise function as 
indep. peng i.e hire their 
own buruh and produce the 
whole cloth from start to finish
3. small peng. who hire no 
burah (25% of peng. fall 
in this category)
they may not be doing all 
production processes e.g. 
they may be doing only the 
weaving while warping, 
dying, threading up etc. done 
elsewhere 
4. buruh who work in some-
one elses HH and are not 
coop members 
((all this represents a first guess
