The Department of Sericulture is advancing Thai silk to an international level. It is organizing the annual Miracle of Thai Silk and Mulberry 4 Regions Expo for 2026. The event (Miracle of Thai Silk and Mulberry) promotes the concept “See, Taste, Shop.” Until 2 Mar 2026 at the Promotion Area, 1st Floor, Central Surat Thani.
On 27 February 2026, Saranyu Phullap, Director of the Department of Sericulture, spoke about advancing the “Project to Enhance the Market Potential of Local Agricultural Identity Products in the Modern Silk Market.” He stated that this event offers the public a valuable opportunity to learn about and purchase quality products directly from producers, while elevating awareness of the value and uniqueness of Thai silk. Specifically, the Thai Silk with the Royal Peacock Brand, which supports Thai farmers and genuinely helps distribute income to communities.
The event also includes an exhibition honoring the royal grace of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother, “The Mother of Thai Silk.” She initiated and was dedicated to restoring and promoting the Thai sericulture profession. She recognized both the cultural and economic value of Thai silk, resulting in supplemental income for farmers and sustainable preservation of local wisdom. This exhibition not only expresses profound gratitude but also inspires younger generations to appreciate and continue the Thai silk tradition.
The event aims to honor and commemorate the royal grace of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother, “The Mother of Thai Silk.” It also promotes awareness among Thai and international audiences about the silk production process—from upstream to midstream to downstream—including certification of Thai silk with the Royal Peacock Brand. Additionally, it highlights the unique beauty of regional Thai silk, creating trade opportunities and direct sales channels for farmers and silk entrepreneurs.
