The company continues to support energy conservation activities, encourage effective resource management and usage, and instill environmental conservation mindset in our employees, as well as educate our customers and the public alike, while expanding our partnership to maintain the right balance between business operation and environmental conservation. In 2018, MBK Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries continued to drive different corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities that support the society, communities, and environment. Both CSR-in-process and CSR-afterprocess have been integrated in our operation under the three-pillar sustainable development model that the company has prioritized and operated by, namely: Economic Aspect: The company plans to invest in enhancing its competitive capability to support future business opportunities, generate good business results to the organization, and provide substantial returns to the shareholders.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT : The company shared useful and practical knowledge in the management of garbage, wastewater, and energy with different communities to enhance their quality of lives. Through problem solving from within the organization and sharing with the public through various projects by MBK Spirit, the employee volunteer group, more than 500 members took turns in joining the communities in implementing more than 12 conservation projects. We promoted plastic waste separation and recycling through “Only Takes One Day To Do Good At Banglamung: the beach cleanup activity in Banglamung, Chonburi” project to raise awareness on trash issues around the seaside communities to uplift the beach landscape, while “MBK Water Conservation” project helped demonstrate the installation of household grease separator to instill the awareness on the proper household waste management to prevent wastewater leaking into canals. Moreover, “MBK Create...Happy Farm For Community” project was largely focused on reused materials, such as golf cart tyres and plastic bottles, that are transformed into tools and equipment for vegetable farming to pilot green patches and safe food source within the community, and lastly “Big Cleaning Day” project, was organized in partnership with government agencies, to clean up sidewalks to reduce dust, enhance the cleanliness and safety of the urban landscape, and create good reputation for our country. Additionally, the company also initiated “Separate, Reduce, Eliminate, and Start” project by installing waste separation bins in the office. The objective
was to promote waste separation behavior prior to throwing away for proper disposal, to reduce energy usage at home and office, to eliminate one-time use plastics, including straws, plastic bags, and use alternative containers, like stainless straws, lunchboxes, or fabric bags. At the same time, “Suk Suk” project also continued for the second year to raise employees’ awareness on the post-separation value of reusable trash. Through this project, employees contributed more than 3,000 kilograms of waste, which was used to produce recycled t-shirts for another project, “MBK REMAKEABLE - Changing Waste Into The Future.” T-shirts were also donated for public benefits. Every project marked another important step in establishing MBK Public Company Limited as the private company with corporate responsibility towards all stakeholders. In the future, the company is committed to operate our businesses sustainably and strongly, while caring for the society and environment in a sustainable manner.

SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS FOR COMMUNITIES AND THE SOCIETY MBK REMAKEABLE PROJECT MBK Remakeable (Transform Trash…to Future) project was comprised of two major activities. First, the “Suk Suk” activity was organized to promote the awareness of the value of trash separation. The effort was focused on separating paper and plastic bottles, the majority of trash in the organization, and exchanging them for useful products at the end of month to alleviate employees from financial burden. In 2018, more than 3,000 kilograms of waste were separated and reused for community and social development. For example, trash separation by the concept of 3R can add values to these trash, reduce trash volume, and transform them into
money donated to Buddhist temples. Moreover, the company collaborated with the network of partners who transform those plastic bottles into recycled t-shirts that were provided to the communities for socially-benefiting activities. Another activity was to disseminate knowledge among employees, communities, and students to show them the larger impacts that are not only limited within their communities, but have a lasting impact on others’ wellbeing, especially those who live in the trash destination. Everyone is considered the important drivers of the process that promote goodness in the society and conserve the environment sustainably.

38
by creating a small vegetable farms from leftovers. Besides, these green patches have become a safe food source for the community, which helps reduce the risks of consuming chemical-contaminated vegetables and helps save on food spending. If there is leftover from the community consumption, residents can sell and generate income for the communities. Importantly, employee volunteers also participated in this activity that brought about benefits to the community and society.

From 1996 to the present, MBK Center has installed the deep shaft wastewater treatment system, which is an activated sludge process that treats sewage by using biological sludge. During the treatment process, staff will continuously test and report the operation of the process. Wastewater samples are collected and sent to a laboratory every month in order to check the quality of the water before releasing it to public sewers. The wastewater is treated to meet the quality control standard for wastewater from a building (Type A). Sewage sludge from the treatment, which amounts to 2 tons per week, is sanitarily removed and disposed by a contractor hired by MBK Center.

3. SUSTAINABLE RESOURCE USE
To reuse the treated wastewater (Recycle)
MBK Center has a project on reusing wastewater that is already treated in order to consume resources efficiently by using recycled water to clean areas around car parks and in a cooling tower system. Before reusing it, the wastewater is processed to remove unwanted suspensions through sand filters and to kill germs through Chlorine Dioxide disinfection in order that the quality of
recycled water is suitable and safe to use. Particularly, the recycled water used in a cooling tower system is randomly checked. Its samples are collected and sent to a laboratory to find Legion Ella Bacteria every 4 months. Therefore, the water recycling is safe for the indoor air quality within MBK Center and complies with best practices for Good Corporate Governance.
