Item discussed:

• How can we turn Prolung Khmer into something similar
• What are the areas that we can learn from Artisan D' Angkor
• What is the unique selling point of Artisan D' Angkor and discover our own Unique selling point.

Personal Reflection:

I somehow realised that it is very commercialised and as we actually went on a tour, i saw how they used a method on the sandstones called "Polychrome" where these sandstones, after going through "Polychrome" will along with its carvings, looks similar to the murals which we can see in Angkor Wat. This claim was also made by the tour guide.

It is interesting however, similarly different to what i have seen in Prolung Khmer Training Centre (PKTC). PKTC based on my observation seems more original in terms of the fabric and weaving. While in Artisan D' Angkor, we didnt really see the weaving process rather the paintings and so on and it seems far more commercialised and not as authentic. In terms of origin of its fabrics. They also replicate murals.

They focus more on Cambodian culture but i believe its fairly different from the focus of PKTC.. Question is.. How different? And What ex PKTC's unique selling point??
