KRABI, 15 June 2015 – Krabi province is set to implement measures that will improve Batik products in an attempt to increase souvenir products’ values and to support the Krabi Quality Tourism City campaign.
The Governor of Krabi Songpon Sawattham has revealed that all related agencies are now working to improve and add value to the quality of Batik products, as these products have received much attention from tourists.
