PHUKET: Local officials are searching for a private company to draw up the exhibit plans for the soon-to-be animatronic Sea Gypsy Cultural Center, Rassada Municipality Chief Administrative Officer (palad) Dechakanee Leelanont told the Phuket Gazette today.

“The Phuket Rajabhat University study group concluded their research into the history of the sea gypsies and the viability of using a 4D-exhibit model for the museum in January,” Mr Dechakanee said. “Overall, they agree with the proposal. However, they did suggest that for financial reasons some of the exhibits be set up in a more traditional way.”

The university research team developed outlines and detailed notes about the history of the sea gypsies, which were all compiled, along with their suggestions, into a single manuscript that will guide the private company designing the final exhibits.
