Of Sacred and Semarang,

Maybe his name westernized, you guessed between Japan and the mixture slightly westernized, but wait a minute behind his name westernized tucked PT. Hartono Istana Teknologi, yes PT. Hartono Istana birth Polytron technology to fly high with Indonesian flavors.
Keindonesiannya no doubt, by having manufacturing at the sanctuary and Semarang clear how the strong pride as the only electronics products from Indonesia.
On May 6, 1975, the owner of PT Djarum cigarette factory, founded a company called PT Hartono Indonesian Electronic & Engineering with a paid up capital of USD 50 million, to produce electronic goods. At that time, similar perusahhaan many who were born and have grown virtually first.
Since the beginning, the founders immediately launched, the industry's future must be independent, despite no experience in the electronics industry. Determination was also made business owners reluctant to engage since the beginning of foreign capital. Therefore, these companies do not have the principal, so the company does not have to pay royalties on each unit of product produced and sold.
Do not have basic electronics, Djarum group recruited 14 women to be trained in order to make a soldering products. Imported electronic component products from Belgium, become TV with great form with a separate sound salon, so be extra large form of tv normally.
You can guess the reaction of the market, this closet-sized TV that does not have a place in the stores Semarang and Jakarta, even vending sales driven, Djarum group also seemed to fail miserably play technology.
Failed not that desperate, just a failure to be early to get a good result, the company's intention to study electronic cigarettes should be held up.
