Selfsufficient and Sustianable Economy in Thailand

Self sufficient economy was introduced by King Bhumibhol , The King of Thailand. The philosophy was focus on local community and sustainable growth. The development of Thailand should not concentrate only industrial development , Thailand had a very huge export sector it's ratio to GDP about 60-70% in 2008 and it has an very big impacted from current global economics crisis, the way that protect our self from this situation is a Middle way. The middle way that i learn from King Bhumibhop's philosophy is

• The community should have economic structure that provide basic necessity for living and use production technology base on community knowledge. For example the community should have to grow some food for their food security or they will produce goods and service from their local knowledge.
  
• Balance between production and consumption, should not consume more than revenue and not prefer a high consumption debt .
• The community must have to protect the environment for sustainable production and living.

I think we can use the middle way for everything in our everyday life. We has encourage to consume more over than we need by genius marketing campaign so reduce some that should be good. I try to follow the King's philosophy by my green community project to support farmer grow rice in non-toxic process, buy them a good prices, produce high quality GABA rice with local community knowledge and distribute high quality product with reasonable price to customer.
