Bringing Back The Batik

While we all know that batik is supposed to be one of Malaysia’s heritage art and design identity, is this reflected in consumer behavior or is it something we all simply take for granted? What does it take to make Malaysian batik survive the test of time? We speak to two entrepreneurs about preserving batik as part of our national and international identity and how they make a greater social impact through their social enterprises.
