An auspicious day and time for the ceremony and blessing of the new Aurecon sign was selected by the Chief Monk as 22 April 2010 between 8.39 am to 10.48 am.
A Buddha statue was obtained for the ceremony from Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan in Chachoengsao, a famous temple with one of the most revered Buddha images in Thailand.
Thailand Country Leader Sakorn Kruemai presided over the ceremony led by nine Monks. The monks began the ceremony with prayers in Pali, a sacred white thread (sai sin) passes from the Buddha statue and through the hands of each of the chanting monks. The prayer vibrations passed through the white thread is supposed to provide protection to the office and good luck to employees.
