Abstract
KUALA LUMPUR: The layman will find it nearly impossible to spot the difference between authentic Malaysian batik and printed batik as both, at first glance, look identical.
This was evident at a recent briefing session for the media by the Malaysian Handicraft Development Corporation (Kraftangan Malaysia) as none of the journalists present were able to tell them apart.
Malaysian consumers' inability to distinguish Malaysian batik from the printed version is understandable as printed batik products dominate the local market with even well-known shops and boutiques selling them, giving the impression they are authentic.
