Abstract

We do not have to wait for Visit Malaysia Year 2020 to promote local batik, nor wait for Thursdays, or for some formal occasions. Or wait for our wakil rakyat to adorn it in Parliament, perhaps make a drab debate more colourful. We have lost that distinct expression of a national identity (in the batik) which all can consume, regardless of economic status, social class, and ethnicity.
