Thai Traditional Masked Dance Heritage Conservation Project

PTTEP 1 Project is located in Suphanburi Province which boasts identical local culture. To help preserve local culture, in 2018, PTTEP 1 Project launched "Thai Traditional Masked Dance Heritage Conservation Project", to publicize, preserve and promote Thai Traditional Masked Dance (Khon) performance; inspire the youth to inherit the local culture; and generate secondary income and pride for project participants.

The Thai Traditional Masked Dance Heritage Conservation Project is implemented at schools in the operating area, involving more than 100 teachers and students each year. The project helps preserve Khon performance which is one of Thailand's national identities, while performance at special events generates extra income for project participants. To date, the project has trained at least 500 teachers and students.
