The content of Mr. Thanin’s letter states that “in the next phase, Thailand must act urgently, namely Preparation for an effective recovery period. That it must maintain confidence AND maintain the social system and way of life in order to exist Small, medium and large companies must not fall or die, and still maintain employment Brothers You will still have a vital income, self-employed, employed by farmers or even unemployed You will still have sufficient income to maintain life and security in the life and property.Also, when it gets dark It must be ready when the sky is bright, that is, prepare a rehabilitation plan so that Thailand returns to normal soon And if we consider this crisis as an opportunity, Thailand dares to set goals for “Thailand is a world economic center” Including trade, investment, finance and technology, for which Thailand is ready
In this sense, CP would like to present the projects that CP will carry out in the next phase. What is the interesting project? Water Plantation Project Emphasizing that Thailand is not only the breadbasket of the Thai people but has also become a leader in food production for the world. However Rapid and severe global climate change undermines water resources, which is an important factor in agricultural production.
Furthermore, each year Thailand has to face droughts and floods repeatedly. Because you cannot allocate a budget to manage water resources adequately and adequately to solve problems completely and permanently. Besides the Mekong River, what is an important source of water in many countries? It was built by more than 11 dams upstream and continued to build more dams Causing downstream countries like Thailand which has an irrigation system that covers only 30% of the land, which has been reduced to the country’s stability and capacity of producing default food, resulting in the insolvency of farmers’ debt. Endless Poverty Forced Without Solution Will divide arable land for children to continue, resulting in smaller parcels and rising costs until the loss of agriculture. Cause farmers’ children to migrate to flee the agricultural sector, which lacks incentives to attract a new generation of farmers to replace the current generation that is older than the average age of 58 years. Therefore, water resource problems must be resolved as urgent.
In addition to the challenges posed by the water factors mentioned above Rice products have their own problems: on the world market, rice production has consistently exceeded demand for decades after the end of the Cold War. Causing rice prices to decrease continuously Only countries that can develop rice cultivation in a comprehensive rice industry. It can be managed through effective cooperatives. We proceeded from the beginning, that is, planting rice on a large parcel of land. Use high technology and machinery instead of human labor. You can dramatically reduce the cost of production per unit in order to compete at a lower price
But for developing countries like Thailand that still uses traditional methods through small farmers. You must face heavy and continuous losses that cannot be avoided. Have the government have to implement methods to solve the problems at the root of the problem and solve problems such as rice price insurance, the promise of rice and the moratorium. a real solution to the problem, but simply a purchase of time to solve the problem. Although the solution is to require farmers to switch to other high-value crops.That is necessary for the market, such as fruit trees and perennials.But it should take at least 3-5 years after planting, during which time How will farmers earn a living? The main problems of the agricultural economy mentioned above will be solved. Through the strategic water transplantation plan, which CP has been studying for a time Allowing farmers to access water sources. It covers the agricultural area of most Thai farmers.
That in the past the government has issued many good measures. To alleviate suffering in a crisis, Covid-19 Continuously and see results, so this proposed project can be considered as just an extension. To alleviate the suffering of fellow citizens, furthermore, a useful proposal in this document is the perspective of the Charoen Pokphand group, which the government sector will choose to use accordingly. If there is any suggestion for further action, the Charoen Pokphand Group is pleased to cooperate with the government. เพื่อ บรรเทา ความ เดือดร้อน ของ พี่น้อง ประชาชน ต่อ ไป
