“My Restrooms Project was first initiated when we learned that the lack of hygienic restrooms is quite severe. We, as the expert in sanitary ware with over 10 years of experience, then initiated this project. We target primary school students who will become the future of the country. We want to give them better quality of life. We want to teach them how to use toilets properly. This time in Chonburi province, the launch of this project is also a part of our celebration of the grand opening of our Chonburi branch,” said Mr. Angsumalee
