Reviving Silk Tradition
go to update

An update on Kikuo Morimoto, who had helped to revived the traditions of hand-made silk in Cambodia in the local community (see previous post). The project has now expanded to included a village, in Chot Sam, which complements the original silk factory, in Siem Reap, all based on a sustainable model of development. This would be without doubt a model of preservation (of heritage and the environment) par excellence.
