The direction was discussed recently by Deputy Prime Minister and Higher Education,
Science, Research and Innovation Minister Yodchanan Wongsawat, Deputy Agriculture
and Cooperatives Minister Watcharaphon Khaokham, and representatives of the Department
of Sericulture. The department has been tasked with advancing silkworm breeding,
silk-processing technology, and raw-material management to increase the value and
competitiveness of Thai silk products.

Among the measures under consideration is the establishment of a Silk Yarn Bank,
which would allow communities, weaving groups, and entrepreneurs to obtain silk 
yarn for production, with repayment or stock replenishment at a later stage. Authorities
are also preparing skills-development programs covering silk production, product
design, branding, packaging, business management, and domestic and international
marketing.
