10. Corporate Social Responsibility

CSR Report

Thailand is recognized as an agricultural country, despite the fact that
the agricultural sector does not take the major role to generate incomes
to the country. However the agricultural sector has still played an
important role to feed the nation, and also yield the national incomes
through export. Over the past, several countries worldwide have been
trying to increase their farming areas in order to cultivate more. Even
the countries which were unable to farm have also tried to lease
cultivated lands of other countries for this purpose. Consequently, it
can be said that the farming sector is significantly important role.

Food Security is a modern problem faced by many countries, especially
developing countries, where such problem is increasingly severe due to
the change of climate and limited area of agriculture. Therefore, each
country has to come up with measures to cope with this problem.

For Thailand, we are capable of producing sufficient food crops for
domestic consumption and exporting to other countries. However, the
government should pay attention to the following factors in order to
avoid future problems.

1.  Agricultural areas have been used for producing alternative energy
    such as solar farm, which has gained increasing popularity,
    especially in Northeastern area.

2.  Agricultural labor force has continuously decreased as new
    generations prefer to work in industrial sector. Therefore,
    agricultural sector has lacked of labor force due to its high demand
    in labor.

3.  More foreigners have used legal loopholes to occupy agricultural
    areas causing some Thai people to lose the possessory right of their
    land and unable to use their land for agricultural purpose.

4.  Factors of production such as chemical fertilizer and pesticide
    chemicals must be imported from other countries causing high
    manufacturing cost.

Weed Science Association of Thailand conducted a research and it was
found that weeds are the number one enemy of farmers. Labor for
agricultural sector is scarce and more costly than the use of
herbicides. Due to the aforementioned factors, Thai farmers have to find
the way to “produce more without expanding the area while making the
efficient use of their existing labor”. Pato Chemical Public Company
Limited was, therefore, established to answer the needs of Thai farmers
for quality, increasing productivity, and rely on less labor by
providing high-quality and effective pesticides at reasonable price
while multinational companies focus on importing finished products,
which are more expensive.

Pato Chemical Industry PCL. has imported both finished products and
Technical Grade chemicals and laid down the policy to focus on import
the Technical Grade materials as much as possible as having considered
that the Technical Grade chemicals can be formulated for their own
manufacturing process and this would cut down the production cost and
help promote the domestic income distribution since other chemical
elements, including packaging materials can be supplied domestically.
The most important thing is that the Company can monitor and control the
quality of the products better than the imported finished ones.
Definitely, this will bring about big advantages to Thai farmers and
agriculturists as they can access to the good quality agricultural
products with the lower price and cut down the farming cost.
Consequently, the past 30-year history of the company’s operation have
been secured by the reliability and trust of Thai agriculturists until
today.

10.1 Corporate Social Responsibility Policy

Pato Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. (Thailand) is a part of society, thus
the importance of doing business with social, community and
environmental awareness is to be concerned for sustainable growth and
achievement of recognition. To encourage the directors, managements and

CSR Activities in Process (ongoing)

Safe and Proper Use of Pesticides Project

Currently, pesticides are recognized worldwide as an important
production factor in creating food security. If they are used correctly,
it can produce safe food for consumers. On the contrary, incorrectly or
excessively usage, it may cause side effects like overdose using of
medicines in human.

             One of the reason behind Thailand success in producing
enough food for domestic consumption and ranking 1 among 10 countries
who can feed the world’s population is the use of production factors
including fertilizers and pesticides. The data showed that the US has an
area of ​​1,015 million hectares of cultivated area. The use of
agrochemicals around 3.9 million tons per year is five times higher when
compared with Thailand. The usage rate of 0.38 kg per hectares is
two-fold higher than Thailand which is only 0.176 kg per hectare. China
is the country of the highest usage rate of agrochemicals. It is 0.70 kg
per hectare or four times higher than the rate of Thailand. Meanwhile,
Japan has cultivated area of 27 million hectares. Agrochemicals usage
rate is 2.3 kilograms per hectare or about 13 times higher than
Thailand. Most of which are used in paddy fields.

           Currently, Thailand has passed one of the most restrictive
law to control the import of agrochemicals, the Hazard Substances Act
B.E. 2551. More than 100 types of hazardous agrochemicals of high
environmental impacts were banned. Agrochemicals that are allowed for
import and sell in Thailand have passed screening process from
manufacturers of over 10-year experiences. The products have been tested
by the environmental agencies; Food and Agriculture Organization of the
United Nations and have been gone through efficiency field trials in
Thailand before being allowed to be sold.

         Prior to the adoption of the Hazard Substances Act B.E. 2551,
there were more than 25,000 hazardous products registered. Presently,
only 9,000 products have been registered. However, there is no country
in the world abolishes the use of pesticides decisively, but they launch
a campaign of usage reduction. In Thailand, it can reduce the use of
agrochemicals by 20-30%. Consequently, if farmers use pesticides wisely
and have enough knowledge to diagnose problems and identify pests
correctly as well as be able to know the features of the products, they
can use it economically and safely in the right time and at an
appropriate rate. (Source: Dr. Weerawut Katanyukul, Ex-President Thai
Agro Business Association).

Consequently, the Company organizes the agriculturist meetings so as to
give them lectures about self-defense by wearing a protective clothing,
proper use and appropriate dosage of chemicals for each crop, and
correct harvesting period as per details prescribed on the label.
Besides, there are a follow up program to ensure if the agriculturists
follow our instructions, in order to instill understanding, reduce the
of using wrong types and overuse of agrochemicals. The overuse may cause
some impact to agriculturists themselves on toxic overdose, pest
resistance, residues in plants and environmental contamination and
adversely affect consumers. In addition, it may cause the losing of
opportunities to export vegetables and fruits.

10.4 CSR after Process (On Going)

Projects of Development of Dream Schools

In the past, the Company had surveyed small schools surrounding the H.O.
and found that most of them were supported by Bangkok Metropolitan
Administration and received sufficient funds for school development.
However, it was found that Wat Uthaitaram Primary School was under the
Office of Basic Education Commission, and offered the Grade 1 – 6
educations. The school were supported the funds from the government by
headcount of students. At the time of survey, there were only 120
students; therefore, the school was rendered insufficient financial
supports for development. Most of students were from poor families.
Consequently, the Company had an opportunity to extend financial
supports and co-work with the school’s Development Committee Team by
procuring educational/sport equipment, providing school meals,
renovating the audio-visual education room which had been closed for
more than 10 years, supplying computers and offering education funds for
the students in need every year.

As the Company piloted the school development program, more volunteers
have joined in activities, for example, renovating the first-aid room,
and library, refurbishing computer room, sport field and rebuilding the
boundary walls. After that the school requested the development funds
from the government to renovate the school building. At present, there
are 300 students at this school.

In the past, there was no English teacher who graduated from the
directly related to field of studies. Therefore, none of grade 6
students could pass the basic national test or o-net in English
language. According to the test in 2010, a maximum score was 32 out of
100 and the minimum was 0. The Company’s employees volunteered to teach
English to the students during the lunch time which was a studying
period. Sometimes, English tutoring classes were arranged on Saturdays
to help the students from grade 5 and 6 to improve the score result.
Moreover, the Company also supported and provided o-net’s exam for grade
6 students. Presently, there is an English teacher in the school, the
purpose of coaching students have changed and focused on students to be
fun with English, to be more assertive, and to learn about culture and
tradition of other countries.

In 2014, maximum score is 56.00 and minimum score is 12.00

-   In 2015, maximum score is 75.00 and minimum score is 12.00

-   In 2016 maximum score is 97.50 and minimum score is 35.00

for a beach trip or a farewell party for students grade 6, depends on
convenience, in order to broaden their view of life experiences.

From such developments, the school has been chosen to be the one of a
Dreamed School Project and in 2014, the school has been selected to
receive royal award school for small school types in Bangkok. Awards
provide the school with fund to further improve the school on academic
performance.

anti-corruption to ensure the implementation are provided. The policy is
revised for appropriateness by the board of directors annually.

The company encourages staff at all levels of awareness on
anti-corruption and fraud of all types and has set policies to prevent
corruption or bribery within corporate governance policy which comply
with laws and regulations both organization and society level as
follows:

1. Help reduce the corruption problems from Thai society through good
governance and internal audit. Do not provide opportunity for anyone to
take advantage of.

2. The values of hard working, honesty, and the greater good are
cultivated among the employees. The training sessions have also been
organized to inform the employees of the company’s policies and
guidelines against corruptions. The aims not only to pass on the
knowledge but also the conscience at the same time. However, the
administrative section believes that if high level executive members
demonstrate appropriate behavior worth respecting to be role models,
this would much help inspiring and motivating the employees to follow
the same path, which is considerably as valuable as sending them to
trainings. When the chairman/president and the managing director
preserve their dignity of becoming role models to the employees
especially on honesty, discipline, value of hard working, and justice,
the employees would become more loyal which eventually help reduce the
risk of corruption in the organization to a certain level of extent.

3. Avoid taking part in any activities that will lead to private and
public corruptions.

An employee may report an illegal action in the organization by filing
an anonymous complaint with clues of violation enclosed (if any), and
submit to the suggestion box where the managing director is the only one
with the access key, otherwise, an employee may send an email directly
to the audit committee at auditcom.pato@gmail.com and/or company
secretary at pato2@cscoms.com so that the company bring up the issue
during an executive meeting to open up a further investigation or fact
finding. However, in 2016, the firm received no filed complaint.

audit report on the fraud submitted to the Audit Committee for the year
2016 as follows:

The Internal Audit Report on Fraud

The internal audit report on fraud has objective to consider risks from
fraud and proper risk management. In considering risks from fraud, these
factors are taken into account:

1. Need and motivation – to consider whether the company has a policy or
factor to create need or motivation for the fraud.

2. Opportunity – to consider whether the company has structure or
process to encourage the fraud.

3. Reason and honesty – to consider factors which affect the reason and
honesty of the company’s personnel.

The consideration of risk management aims to ensure that the company has
three important processes:

1. Preventive – the company has policy or system for internal control to
prevent the risk of fraud

2. Detective – the company has channel or process to detect the
abnormality in the organization

3. Responsive – the company has clear and strict penalties for those who
broke the agreement

The company has an internal audit on fraud by considering the risk of
fraud as follows.

1. Needs and Motivations - Considering company's policy whether they
create needs or motivation of fraud.

2. Opportunities – Considering organizational structure or work
procedures whether they create opportunity for corruption.

3. Rationality and honesty – Considering factors that affect the
validity and integrity of company’s personnel.
From the audit of the company’s structure, policy and internal control,
it is found that:

1. The company has structure that clearly separates duties for each
department.

2. The company has efficient internal control system for each department
to check each other’s work. For example, Sales Department is responsible
for sales order while Operation Department is responsible for warehouse
control, operation and delivery. When the Sales Department receives the
money from customers, the payment will be delivered and monitored by the
Accounting Department.

3. The management has a clear anti-corruption policy to help reduce
fraud in Thai

society by avoiding to get involved with any activities that can lead to
corruption both government and private sector.

  4. The company is careful in preparing any promotional plans that may
  lead to any corruption.

5. The management is personally close to employees so they will know if
something is likely to go wrong in the company.

6. So far, there has been no fraud incident in the company.
