Tata Motors (Thailand) launched its “San Fan Pan Acheep” scheme to boost young people’s chances of finding employment. It is part of the Tata Group’s commitment to contributing to social benefit and sustainable living while conducting its business in Thailand. The programme aims to help young and underprivileged people by providing teaching and training equipment to educational institutions throughout Thailand.
“Tata Motors Thailand is committed to raising the standard of life by focussing on employment, education, health and the environment,” said Ajit Venkataraman, Chief Executive Officer of Tata Motors (Thailand). “We realise that education is fundamental to success at work and security in life. Consequently, we started San Fan Pan Acheep in April 2010 to provide assistance to organisations concerned with education and vocational training for young people and the underprivileged.”
Tata San Fan Pan Acheep aims to build up the employment potential of the young and disadvantaged by providing learning materials and equipment such as computers and welding machines and digital multimeters to learning institutions throughout the country. They will then enable the young people to improve their knowledge and ability through hands-on experience. Research into the requirements of each organization will be carried out first to ensure that the aid material precisely meets the organization’s needs for the optimum benefit of the learners.
The San Fan Pan Acheep programme has already contributed vocational aid to 22 insitutions in the Central, Northern, and Northeastern regions of Thailand. It has included Saraburi Industrial and Community College, Phra Dabos Foundation Bangkok, the Redemptorist Vocational School for People with Disabilities in Chonburi, Chiangmai Centre for Skill Development, Yardfon Vocational Rehabilitation Centre for Disabled Chiangmai, Chiangrai Centre for Skill Development, Chirangrai Vocation Training Centre for Women, Udonthani Polytechnic College, and Khon Kaen Institute of Skill Development. Tata is now preparing to give assistance for twelve more organizations by the end of this year.
“While conducting its business in Thailand, Tata Motors is dedicated to creating useful initiatives for Thai society,” said Ajit. “We shall continue the San Fan Pan Acheep programme far into the future, proving valuable assistance to organizations in all regions of the Kingdom.
“It is our sincere hope that this programme will enhance the ability of the young and underprivileged to find employment and earn a living for a sustainable future.”
