Akara Resources Public Company Limited donated rice, dried food, and essential medicines to the Phichit Provincial Industry Office. These supplies will be used to assemble survival bags for distribution to flood victims in northern Thailand.
Mr. Sompong Wangrungvichaisri, official from the Phichit Provincial Industry Office, received the donated goods from company representatives at the Phichit Provincial Industry Office. These items will be forwarded to the Phitsanulok Provincial Industry Office, which will serve as the central hub for preparing the survival bags. Once ready, the bags will be distributed to affected residents in the northern region.
Mr. Sompong stated that, in line with the Ministry of Industry’s “Industries Unite to Help Thai Citizens” initiative, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry has directed all provincial industry offices to urgently procure and distribute food, essential goods, and other necessities to those impacted by the floods.
On this occasion, Mr. Thanachart Phathong, Assistant Manager of Government Relations at Akara Resources Public Company Limited, emphasized that the Company is deeply aware of the hardships faced by the affected communities. To alleviate their suffering, Akara provided water, dried food, and essential medicines to the Phichit Provincial Industry Office. After the survival bags are assembled and returned from the Phitsanulok Provincial Industry Office, Akara will collaborate with local agencies to deliver them directly to the flood victims.
Earlier, on 26 August 2024, Akara and its partners visited Wang Pong Kindergarten School in Wang Pong District, Phetchabun Province, to provide assistance to more than 600 teachers and students. The school had sustained significant damage to 15 classrooms and educational equipment due to severe flooding, forcing an eight-day closure. The damages were estimated at 2.5 million baht. Akara and its partners assisted in cleaning the damaged classrooms to ensure a swift return to normal operations.
