Corporate Social Responsibility Corporate Social Responsibility EGAT has carried out both CSR in process and CSR after process taking into account the participation of the public and sustainable development of the quality of life and the environment, in order to encourage the public acceptance. Activities Concerning the Communities around the Power Plants Participatory process has been used to enhance the participation of all sectors as follows: Encouragement of understanding in power development This activity aims to create an understanding of the public to be aware of the increasing power demand owing to the growth and expansion of the society, which results to the necessity of the new power development projects. The power projects to increase the generating capacity of the existing power plants include the North Bangkok Power Plant Block 2, the Unit 4-7 Replacement Project of Mae Moh Power Plant, the Wang Noi Power Plant Block 4, the Chana Power Plant Block 2, five micro-hydropower plants, downstream hydropower plants, and Bang Lang Hydropower Plant Unit 1-3. The new power plant development projects include coal power development projects in Chumporn, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Trang, Krabi, and Songkhla Provinces, renewable power development projects in Sikhio District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province and Thap Sakae District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, and nuclear power project area. Development of the communities’ quality of life EGAT has participated with all sectors to support and improve the quality of life of the communities in the vicinity of the power plants and areas for new power development projects. For sustainable development, a variety of community development projects and activities have been carried out. EGAT also promotes and disseminates knowledge to local people on the application of effective microorganism in sustainable farming and living. Environmental conservation promotion EGAT promotes and participates with all sectors in raising awareness and recognition of environmental conservation through the campaigns based on the Royal Initiative Projects in Conservation of Natural Resources and Environment. 116 A Leader of Clean Energy Technology EGAT’s project on reforestation to increase water sources of Sirikit Dam to commemorate the 78th Birthday Anniversary of Her Majesty the Queen The forest conservation project was implemented under the initiations of the Organizing Committee to commemorate the 60th Coronation Anniversary and the Ministry of Energy’s project to commemorate the 78th Birthday Anniversary of Her Majesty the Queen (August 12) with the concept of “Tree planting and check dam building to honor the Queen”. The project aimed for reforestation in an area of 780 rai on the right riverbank of the Nan River National Park in Tha Pla District of Uttaradit Province and an increase of water sources by building 780 check dams around the reservoir of Sirikit Dam with participation of all concerned sectors. 117 Project on restoration and preservation of seagrass in Krabi Province The project aimed to create the awareness in restoration and conservation of seagrass with participation of communities in Sri Boya Sub-district, Nuea Khlong District, Krabi Province by growing and planting seagrass around Sri Boya Island and Pu Island. A learning center was established at Pu Island. A campaign on seagrass planting was organized with the participation of the community. Promotion of the conservation of forests and the environment The project aimed to create the awareness in forest and environment conservation with participation of communities and government sectors by means of forestation. Examples of such activities are as follows: - Tree planting in Ubol Ratchthani Province - Mangrove planting in the Mu Koh Chumphon National Park, Mueang District in Chumphon Province - Mangrove planting on both sides of the Natub Canal 118 A Leader of Clean Energy Technology - Mangrove planting on the islet in the Bang Pakong River - Trees planting to increase green area in Bang Kruai District, Nonthaburi Province with participation of the community in the area Promotion of community environment protection The activities of using effective microorganisms (EM) as the means to protect the environment were conducted with participation of communities which included lecture on the use of EM for environmental protection in power development area in different provinces such as Ubon Ratchathani, Kalasin, Nakhon Ratchasima, Nakhon Sawan, Ayutthaya, Nonthaburi, and Nakhon Si Thammarat. Moreover, under the Project “Beautiful Canal, Clear Water”, EGAT conducted training and established 5 microorganism banks in community areas. Activities Concerning the Environmental Conservation EGAT has given importance to environmental management by conducting activities within the framework of corporate social responsibility and environmental policy comprising the project on greenhouse gas reduction and development of clean and renewable energy. In 2013, major activities in environmental conservation are as follows: 119 Environmental impact assessment of power development projects Concerning the environmental impact assessment for the new power development projects in 2013, assessment reports of the following 5 projects were approved by the Office of Natural Resources and Environmental Policy and Planning. - Bang Pakong Combined Cycle Project Block 5, Chachoengsao Province - Lam Ta Khong Wind Power Project Phase 2, Nakhon Ratchasima Province - Khlong Tron Hydropower Project, Uttaradit Province - Grid network of 500 kV between Thai border (Nan Province) - Nan 2 - Mae Moh 3 (additional part through the conservation area) - Solar Power Project of 5 MW, Thap Sakae District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province The preparation of report of the environmental impact assessment of the following 3 more projects are in process: - Project of capacity expansion of Krabi Power Plant, Krabi Province - Project of Replacement of Mae Moh Power Plant, Units 4-7, Lampang Province - Mae Moh Mine, Lampang Province Monitoring the environmental quality EGAT recognizes the importance of environmental quality monitoring in preventing and controlling the environmental impact from the operation. The activities include the control of air pollution from SO2, NOx, CO2, etc. as well as management and control of quality of water, noise, waste, and used materials in accordance with the standard specified in the law and improvement of the quality of the environment as a whole. Moreover, EGAT supports the establishment of a network of the communities around the power plants to monitor the environmental quality. Environmental network The environment community networks in the area of 5 kilometers from power plants have been established, namely, - Wang Noi Combined Cycle Power Plant, Ayutthaya Province - Chana Combined Cycle Power Plant, Songkhla Province - North Bangkok Combined Cycle Power Plant, Nonthaburi Province - Lam Ta Khong Jolabha Vadhana Power Plant, Nakhon Ratchasima Province The purpose of the network is to provide the communities knowledge and practice in the fundamental inspection of water quality. With this, EGAT intends to create more understanding from the communities and a closer linkage between the local ecological system and the power plants. 120 A Leader of Clean Energy Technology Stakeholders’ participation and public hearing EGAT recognizes the importance of stakeholders’ participation and public hearing.

E-mail address: [email protected] Received: 25 January 2018; Accepted: 15 May 2018 Abstract Health issues have increased among monks in Thailand due to food consumption behavior diet based on food offered by Buddhists at present. Most foods offered by Thai Buddhists are often rich in carbohydrates and fat which may contribute to the monks’ declining health. The objective of this research was to survey foods and analyze nutritional value of food offered to monks by Thai Buddhists. Cross-sectional survey revealed that the most common dishes are five-spice eggs (Kai Palo), Spicy minced pork (Larb moo), sour soup with mixed vegetables (Kaeng Som Pak Reum), omelet (Kai jieow) and curry with pickled bamboo shoots (Kaeng Pet Nor Mai Dong). Simple random sampling methods were used to collect samples. Samples of these popular dishes were collected from different restaurants and recipes and analyzed using the nutritional analysis program, INMUCAL V.3. The results from each 100 g of food showed that the five-spice eggs contained the most sodium and sugar (654.70 mg and 5.53 g, respectively). Spicy minced pork provided the highest carbohydrates, protein and calories (23.98 g, 14.29 g and 231.65 kcal, respectively).

  • The Tonal Comparative Method: Tai Tone in Historical Perspective
    Abstract The Tonal Comparative Method: Tai Tone in Historical Perspective Rikker Dockum 2019 To date, the majority of attention given to sound change in lexical tone has focused on how an atonal language becomes tonal and on early stage tone development, a process known as tonogenesis. Lexical tone here refers to the systematic and obligatory variation of prosodic acoustic cues, primarily pitch height and contour, to encode contrastive lexical meaning. Perhaps the most crucial insight to date in accounting for tonogenesis is that lexically contrastive tone, a suprasegmental feature, is bom from segmental origins. What remains less studied and more poorly understood is how tone changes after it is well established in a language or language family. In the centuries following tonogenesis, tones continue to undergo splits, mergers, and random drift, both in their phonetic realization and in the phonemic categories that underlie those surface tones. How to incorporate this knowledge into such historical linguistic tasks as reconstmction, subgrouping, and language classification in a generally applicable fashion has remained elusive. The idea of reconstmcting tone, and the use of tonal evidence for language classifi­ cation, is not new. However, the predominant conventional wisdom has long been that tone is impenetrable by the traditional Comparative Method. This dissertation presents a new methodological approach to sound change in lexical tone for languages where tone is already firmly established. The Tonal Comparative Method is an extension of the logic of the traditional Comparative Method, and is a method for incorporating tonal evidence into historical analyses in a manner consistent with the first principles of the longstanding Comparative Method.

  • CCTV Approachis Exceeding Expectation
    94 Good Practice: Northern Region Good Practice: Northern Region 89 CCTV approachis Exceeding Expectation Miss Sariya Taweegul ChiangRai Prachanukroh Hospital Based on the road safety statistics in 2012, there were three provinces that still had low to middle level of helmet wearing rate. They were Nan, Chiang Rai, and Phayao whose helmet wearing rate was at 41%, 38%, and 24% respectively. This number is a good indicator of risk behaviour that leads to severe injuries or even death if motorcycle riders are involved in a crash. The risk becomes greater when combined with road conditions, surrounding environment, and risk spots such as the cross road, merging lanes, intersections, and U-turns, particularly atconnecting roads between nearby provinces with high numbers of road users. Moreover, the density of traffic is increased at the time of a holiday season as these three provinces are popular among the tourists.This road safety situationis indeed a challenging one for all three provinces to work together in order to comply with the UN Decade of Action Declaration to cut down the road toll in half by 2020. Applying law enforcement to suppress risk behaviours alone may not be enough, which is clearly seen from the enforcement statistics whereby police have arrested 21,592 traffic offenders each year. However, there is still inadequate task force compare to the amount of job responsibilities. The use of a technology such as CCTV to assist in risk behaviour suppression is therefore necessary. Nan, Chiang Rai, and Phayao have installed the CCTV in their citiesPeople within the municipal areasneed to be discouraged from taking risks when using roads as well as promoting road safety discipline especially through 100% Helmet Wearing Policy under the concept of "fault, if not corrected, will become commonly accepted and rightful" in the end.
