Today’s Youth for Future World

Social Responsibility is not an option

Analyzing Thai youth as future generation in terms of their competency, behavior and trend and how it will impact to themselves and Thailand as a country in the next future. Also, what they should prepare in the global competition and future issues, such as AEC 2013 and take part or contribute to their country’s development.

Sustainability is an important part for the continuity of an organization. Sustainability is not only ensuring the internal system of an organization but also external sectors, the societies around them, which will also impact on the business. Therefore, social responsibility (CSR) is a must-do program for business sector, not just an option.
