Villagers from a remote village in Lampung Province who received wedding production training initiated by the 'Twin Teachers' show the result of their work applied to other villagers who were asked to be models (front row). Aside from the training itself, the villagers also get to keep the wedding gowns and make-up donated by the twins. The trials and tribulations of the twin sisters' crusade has not deterred their passion for work. Instead, they have expanded to various parts of the country promoting training modules to gain practical skills as part of their adult education programme targeting women empowerment. Since the early 1990s, twin sisters Sri Rosyati (known as Rossy) and Sri Irianingsih (known as Rian) have used their family inheritance to set up and run 64 schools in different parts of Indonesia, providing primary education combined with practical skills to some of the country's most deprived children.   .
