Delta awarded the scholarships at two ceremonies held at the Chiang Mai Yunnan Association and The Yunnan Association of Thailand Chiang Rai Branch. Due to this year’s COVID-19 pandemic, only 100 sponsorship recipients participated in each award ceremony.
Mr. Jackie Chang, Delta Thailand President, congratulated the scholarship recipients. “Delta Group has sponsored the Northern Thailand Scholarship Program for 20 years because we believe that education is very important for children. Delta cooperates with many excellent Thai universities to sponsor Thai students who want to train in Taiwan and also do internships at Delta Thailand. We hope students from Northern Thailand will also have the opportunity to join our programs,” he said.
Delta’s academic assistance funds was divided into two categories:
• Bursary for underprivileged senior high school students with excellent academic performance.
• Scholarships for underprivileged elementary, junior high school and senior high school students with good academic performance.
For the last 20 years, Delta Thailand and the Delta Electronics Foundation offered scholarships and bursaries to students in Northern Thailand to help students reach their full academic potential and support economic development in the rural and remote region. Delta supports education for local talent and economic development among its communities in Thailand.
