Bangkok Bank Director and Executive Vice President Mr. Thaweelap Rittapirom welcomed Deputy Interior Minister Nipon Boonyamanee, Vice Governor of Songkhla province Ms. Sureeyapan Na Songkhla, and the Chairman of Money Expo Mr. Santi Viriyarangsarit during the opening ceremony of the 12th Money Expo Hatyai as they visited Bangkok Bank’s booth. The 12th Money Expo Hatyai was held at Central Festival Hatyai to showcase financial products and services to meet customer lifestyles under the “Design Your Wealth for Well-being” theme.
Mr. Thaweelap Rittapirom, Director and Executive Vice President, said Bangkok Bank joined 2022 Money Expo Hatyai held during 8-10 July 2022 at Central Festival Hatyai by arranging its booth under the concept of “Design Your Wealth for Well-being” in accordance with its commitment to being a “trusted partner” who supports wealth and well-being of its customers. This is also in line with the theme of Money Expo 2022, “Wealth to Wellness”, that aims to present new ways of wealth to create better quality of life in a changing world.
In addition, the Bank also takes the megatrend of sustainability into consideration when designing the booth. To conserve the environment, the Bank used the main structure of the booth for Money Expo Bangkok as a prototype, then reused and adjusted the structure to suit the events held in other provinces to reduce single usage of the structure with an aim to achieve zero waste. This is to support the Bank’s focus on creating value for sustainable growth while reinforcing the Bank’s status as Thailand’s leading bank.
