One Product"- a Thai Government initiative launched
in 2001 to identify and promote unique products made by
village communities (Tambons) as a means of expanding the
country's domestic and international trade as well as improving
incomes at the grass-roots level. The culmination of local
wisdom and experience handed down from generation to generation
has resulted in the creation of attractive and refined handicrafts.

on February 5 and continues till tomorrow. The products
include exotic lamps, trendy gadgets, household ware, handicrafts,
pottery, fresh fruits, jewellery and a soothing massage
