Batik is a very popular fabric in Asia. It's uniqueness attract many attention of locals and also tourists. It is handpainted mostly originated from Indonesia and Malaysia. A Malay traditional wear, known as baju kurung is spectacular using fabric like Batik. It can be painted on cotton and even silk. My eldest sister and I ever visited a Batik factory in Terengganu, Malaysia. Back then, I'm just speechless and overwhelm with amazement!
