Uphold Core Values for a Diverse, Competitive and Sustainable Workplace

By Delta Thailand - Published July 22, 2024

For the fourth year, Delta Thailand celebrates June Pride Month as we raise awareness of our LGBQT+ community through our DET Voices employee audio interviews. Meanwhile, Thailand has made the historic step of becoming the first nation in Southeast Asia to legalize same-sex marriage after the kingdom’s Senate approved a marriage equality bill.

Delta Thailand is proud to be a leader in highlighting the role of our minority, female and LGBTQIAN+ colleagues who work side by side with us. When the company includes and gives everyone a fair chance, we can fully realize the potential of our people. When we speak out and share our voices, we can help impact our global corporate culture (which now has “inclusion” as a core value) and shape our policies that recognize diversity as vital to our sustainable development.

As members of a company that prides itself on our ESG focus and ethical business, we should speak up and offer feedback on how to create systems that ensure transparency and equal access and opportunity according to our Code of Conduct. We applaud our teammates for their courage in taking a stand against corruption and bias that rots the core of society. Your determination and integrity will help to build a competitive workplace where talent can thrive, and dreams can become reality.

In this issue of 360, we bring you our third Pride Month special edition of our popular DET Voices mini-podcast. Here five members of our LGBT community talk frankly about how we can all support diversity and what “Pride” means to them personally.

In the Focus section, we highlight Delta’s recent MOUs with local partners in Australia and Indonesia to offer localized offerings and services to customers. In Thailand, we announce the launch of the C4 Duo fast charger by Innergie and new charging stations at the Bangkok Airport Thai Airway’s Royal Silk Lounge.

In the Up Close section, Mr. Rupesh Tandon, Delta Thailand R&D Director, shares his amazing journey from India to Thailand and relentless pursuit of technical excellence in power electronics R&D. His accomplished career included international patents and technological breakthroughs that put Delta Thailand’s R&D team on the map and support top global brands for the past two decades.

In the On-site section, we visited VIMF 2024 in Vietnam, where Delta’s IABG showcased drives, inverters and SCARA robots powering the country’s shift to automated manufacturing. Over in Malaysia Delta and Universal Instruments joined SEMICON Southeast Asia 2024 to showcase smart, high-precision and high-speed solutions and machinery for the growing local semiconductor industry.

Heading down under, we catch the action with Delta Australia and Loytec at ARBS 2024, where they showcased Delta’s energy-efficient and precise HVAC systems and Loytec’s intelligent building automation and control.

In Singapore, the team hosted the first Delta Future Forward event, a day filled with insightful discussions, innovative ideas, and meaningful connections. Keynote speakers and panelists discussed datacenter energy and energy storage solutions and explored the latest innovations in sustainable technology at the showroom.

In Thailand, we held our second annual SEA Partner Event where we brought distribution partners from the SEA and Australia regions to celebrate successes, update technologies and strategies and make new connections.

In the Our Success section, we see how Delta Australia worked with partners to implement fast charging stations at the Hobart Airport in Tasmania. We also celebrate Delta Thailand joining the Brand Finance Thailand 50 2024 report, ranking 13th among the 50 most valuable Thai brands. We also mark the 10th consecutive year in the Thaipat Institute ESG100 Universe.

In the CSR section, our Delta Thailand CEO, Victor Cheng, visits a partner university Chulalongkorn University to congratulate the new Dean of the Engineering Faculty on his appointment and discuss further cooperation.

In the Fun section, we revisit all the fun moments at the 2024 Potluck and Trivia events at Delta Australia. We also see the many teambuilding activities happening at Delta Singapore from Coffee Talk to birthday parties and team challenges.

Finally, DET CEO Victor Cheng gives his updates on the first half of 2024 and expectations for the rest of the year in a special talk taken from a recent interview with the Bangkok Post in the Townhall column.
