"In this collaboration, we join hands with Panasonic Manufacturing Ayuthaya Co., Ltd. (PMFAT), a manufacturer of electrical switches and outlet sockets with over 25 years of operation in Ayutthaya province. Together, we embarked on a 'Classroom Electrical Switches and Sockets Improvement Project' for Ban Chang School in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province. The school building is in disrepair, with numerous damaged electrical outlets in classrooms, posing a potential danger to students, teachers, and school personnel.

This mission involved supplying and installing 50 sets of electrical equipment, including sockets, light switches, socket masks, and 30-amp safety breakers to prevent electric shocks and leakages. The installation of these devices was handled by professional electricians. In addition, a Panasonic 2-door refrigerator, model NR-BX421BPST, with a capacity of 13.4 cubic units, was contributed for the school's benefit. On this occasion, Ms. Piyanuch Taengsaengchan, Acting Director and representative of Ban Chang School, received the electrical equipment. Panasonic Team also organized activities to educate the students about selecting electrical equipment that meets safety standards. Additionally, 12 awards are given to students with outstanding academic results in the year 2023.

Panasonic Manufacturing Ayuthaya Co., Ltd. (PMFAT) is the leading manufacturer of top-quality electrical switches and outlet sockets. With a successful track record, the company has sold over 500 million units of products in Thai and international markets. The company is dedicated to making a positive impact on Thai society in various dimensions. It has generated over 1,700 employment opportunities and other initiatives for the nearby community areas. Besides Ban Chang School, the company also supplies 479 electrical switches and outlet sockets to Ban Pa Mai Phra Chai School in Saraburi Province to improve the electric system and enhance safety for students and school personnel," said Mr. Hidekazu Ito.
