The Ministry of Labour received 10 crates of vegetable oil products from Lam Soong (Thailand) Co., Ltd, to replenish the community pantries for people to take and use, to relieve suffering from COVID-19.
On May 22, 2020, Secretariat to the Labour Minister Lt. Gen. Nanthadet Meksawat together with Deputy Permanent Secretary of Labour Mrs. Theanrat Nawamawat jointly received the 10 crates of vegetable oil products from Managing Director of Lam Soon (Thailand) Public Company Limited, Mr. Wirat Suwanarat, at the foyer on the ground floor of the Ministry of Labour building. The donation was part of the donations to help replenish vegetable oil in the community pantries to help the people affected by COVID-19 to continue with their lives.
The Ministry of Labour’s community pantries have been established since May 13 at Gate 1 of the Ministry of Labour. Each day, executives, civil servants, officials, and the general public use consumer goods that are essential to life, are continually replenished in the community pantries to share with those who are currently experiencing problems in their lives. The initiative also reduces the burden of expenses. At the same time, people who want to share can donate items to the community pantry and give encouragement to help everyone to overcome the COVID-19 crisis together.
