As a tradition, workers in companies are always required to wear suits and tie, but according to a senior government official, Thailand is to ask workers to atop wearing suits as part of the country’s latest measure to conserve energy. This is the idea of the new government, because Thailand is a tropical country and air-conditioners have been used very commonly, which consume a large amount of energy, but if the workers turned up in shirt sleeves, they wouldn’t need air-conditioners turned up so high. Al its weekly meeting, the cabinet passed a resolution asking all public servants not to wear jackets and urging private employees to do the same. This has already been practised by the government. At a recent meeting, only four of six air-conditioners in the cabinet room had been turned on. One of the government officials says, "Initially it was not hot in the room, but if a meeting lasts a long time, the temperature might need to be lowered a bit."
