STRENGTHENING INFRASTRUCTURE, TOURISM AND AGRICULTURE FOR AN ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENT A development in Agriculture, tourism and infrastructure will be complementary to each other and strengthen this region.

Infrastructure: Using the landscape to its fullest! The tradition of water management and living by the water should be cherished. Transport over waterways is much more sustainable than over roads. This area has an incredible canal infrastructure that is under used. Public boat transport and boat taxis along the canal make the area well connected with Bangkok and Samut Sakhorn as well as the north (tourism and other (agricultural and seafood)transport). Crossroads between canals and roads can function as nodes to go from one sort of transport to another. The local centres where these transition nodes are, also provide bike rental points, agricultural markets, restaurants, etc..
