Ban Bang Kaja Community Development Project in Chanthaburi Province
Ban Bang Kacha is a village known as an OTOP (One Tambon One Product) tourism destination in Chanthaburi province. It offers historical and natural attractions such as Khai Noen Wong, Wat Yothanimit, Wat Plap Bang Kacha, and Si Phaya Waterfall, among others. Additionally, there are dining and shopping venues available, such as the Toob Moh Market and Rong Jai Bang Kacha (Fresh Market).
This project is an initiative for community development in Bang Kacha sub-district, Muang district, Chanthaburi province, under the “Driving the Economy and Society Post-COVID with BCG (U2T for BCG)” program. The Faculty of Gems held a meeting with the Bang Kacha community and graduates in the area to gather ideas for promoting and driving products/services within the framework of the BCG (U2T for BCG) economy. The main activities of the meeting were as follows:
The expansion of sales and the extension of existing products, both offline and on online platforms, aimed at generating income for the community.
The development of tourism routes that incorporate activities such as gastronomy, shopping, and local cultural experiences in the Bang Kacha sub-district area. (https://online.anyflip.com/ambbd/yezh/mobile/)
