Baan Tawai more than a wood carving village

Night Bazzaar is nothing compared to the offerings in Baan Tawai. It is now become the shopper heaven of the north of Thailand. It is famous with Thai travellers as the place to get anything at a good price from a 12 foot wooden elephant to the perfect textile hanging for the summer home. Just out of Chiang mai off the Hangdong road you will find the place all the wholesellers and the exporters go to find those fantastic newly made antiques or home decor items. They sell in rivercity, pier one and you name it they all go there to buy or produce. There are markets of small stalls and large factories that produce and/or sell great unique items that are handmade in Thailand. Yes some are shipped in from Easan or even Burma but nowhere will you find a better selection or price. The trip is best made by hiring a red truck for the day or get a car from like northwheels.com as you will have a lot to bring back assuming you do not end up sending a container home. For that try Kavin packers they like most shippers have an office out there too. Great shopping

Shillong, April 4: A business delegation from Kenya has extended an invitation to Meghalaya urban affairs minister Paul Lyngdoh to initiate exchange programmes between the northeastern state and the east African country.
Lyngdoh also interacted with officials from Thailand during his visit to the International Shillong Trade Fair on Tuesday. The director of Mobrama Investments of Kenya, Isabella Amaiza Mungasia, praised Meghalaya’s tourism potential.
“India and Kenya can help each other promote their tourism potential. In the beginning, we can initiate exchange programmes to learn from each others’ experience.”
The commercial counsellor of the Thai embassy in India, Tharadol Thongruang, and the senior trade officer of the Thai government’s department of export promotion, Kanjana Pongpanich, requested Lyngdoh to immediately lead a delegation from the Northeast to Thailand to study issues of mutual interest.
“Thailand and Northeast India are rich in handicraft products. I strongly believe that frequent interaction will benefit the two countries,” Tharadol said.
The Thai officials congratulated Lyngdoh for including the International Shillong Trade Fair in the annual trade fair calendar of the Thai government.
More than 19 companies from Thailand, under the department of export promotion (DEP), ministry of commerce, have participated in the fair.
