NXPO selected Sakon Nakhon to pilot a BCG project based on its strong engagement of the public, private and people sectors to drive the development, particularly in waste management. In 2015, a waste bank program was launched in Na Weng by community members, with the support of Sakon Nakhon Municipality. The program which now has over 200 members collects municipal solid waste for recycling. Wastes dropped off by members are separated by volunteers, and recyclable materials are then sold, generating income for members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"835\" height=\"316\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/fe.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/fe.jpg 835w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/fe-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/fe-768x291.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 835px) 100vw, 835px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Waste bank program founder Mr. Tongpan Raksapon disclosed that he founded the program to make his community clean and livable.
