When I read the annual report of the Company, if I conclude that there is a material misstatement therein,
         I am required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance for correction of the misstatement.


               Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
               Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance
         with Thai Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to
         enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
               In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue
         as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting
         unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but
         to do so.


               Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.


               Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
           from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion.
               My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
     Annual Report 2020  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with


         Thai Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
         fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
         influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

               As part of an audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing, I exercise professional judgement and maintain
         professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also:
               •  Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
                   error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
                   sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.  The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
                   resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
                   intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
               •  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
                   are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
                   of the Company’s internal control.
               •  Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
                   and related disclosures made by management.
               •  Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
                   based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions
                   that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that
                   a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures
                   in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions
