OUR COMMUNITY


“They help with everything. If the mine can assist with something, they always do.”

The sewing machine I use to make a living was provided by the mine’s community development fund. Thanks to this support, we have money to support our family and don’t have to struggle to find work outside our area. Without their help, I wouldn’t have this sewing machine.”

Ms. Sompong Kanyapan,

Resident at Moo 4, Ban Jit Sua Ten, Khao Chet Luk, Thap Khlo, Phichit.

“I want the mine to always stay with our community.”

When the mine closed, our village felt empty, with only old people and children left behind. My shop almost had to shut down. But with the mine running, villagers return home, find jobs, and have money to spend. Shops in the community are brought back to life again, and the elderly have people to care for them. So, I wholeheartedly support the mine and hope it remains a vital part of our community.”

Mr. Wasant Chimplee,

Resident at Moo 8, Ban Dong Long, Wang Pong, Phetchabun.


“The mine really cares about us. They’re always checking in, asking how the villagers are doing. I’m truly grateful for that.”

If it wasn’t for the mine, we wouldn’t be living together like we are now. When the mine closed, a lot of families were torn apart. Having the mine open again is the best thing. My health’s just fine—never got sick from the mine at all.”

Ms. Wanpen Klamoad,

Resident at Moo 3, Ban Khao Din, Khao Chet Luk, Thap Khlo, Phichit.

“I’ve always felt good about the gold mine. We can see with our own eyes what the mine does for us villagers. They help with everything – taking care of our infrastructure, our utilities, and always looking out for us.”

When the mine closed, we were all shocked. There wasn’t any pollution or environmental harm like the news said. The whole community went quiet – businesses slowed down. But now that the mine’s open again, things are better. Families are back together, and local trade is picking up again, just like before.”

Mr. Siwakorn Chuaikamchu,

Resident at Moo 3, Ban Khao Din, Khao Chet Luk, Thap Khlo, Phichit.

This is the packaging that Akara has supported us with. I am truly glad that Akara has contributed to developing our community in terms of packaging. Having well-sealed and hygienic packaging gives customers confidence when our products are brought to the market.

“At Akara, the children can learn for free”

Many children have to spend money when attending classes elsewhere, but at Akara, the children can learn for free. This truly helps ease the burden on families and genuinely supports the children’s learning. I sincerely hope that projects like this will continue in the future.

Mrs. Orawan Thuamchot,

Resident at Moo 12, Khao Chet Luk Subdistrict, Thap Khlo District, Phichit Province.

“With Akara’s support, we have been able to accomplish many things”

There are many projects that our school wanted to carry out but could not. With Akara’s support, we have been able to accomplish many things that we never thought would be possible.
