Starting with his small backyard factory, Dr.Korn took his unwavering faith Thai people could manufacture quality electrical products in comparable standard and in place of reliance on imports, With diligence, creativity, and perseverance, Dr.Korn developed many cost effective techniques in manufacturing electrical products with international standards. In 1969, Dr.Korn and his wife Thanpuying Niramol started their joint venture in Thailand with Toshiba Corporation Japan, bringing foreign investment, technology, production knowledge, and international recognition to Thailand.

In 1987, another of Dr.Korn’s visions, Bangkadi Industrial Park was realized, attracting other countries to put their faith and locate their production based to Thailand, strengthening Thai industry even more.

Thanpuying was known for her honesty, her vision, system-atic approaches and quick thinking. As an entrepreneur, her attributes were the foundation of the development and progress of the conglomerate of companies under the "Toshiba" banner in Thailand, and also Bangkadi Industrial Park, both of which Thanpuying Niramol and her husband Dr.Korn built. Her deligence created innumerable jobs and opportunities for the Thai people.

The grievous situation was eventually relieved, much due to her heartfelt commitment and enduring support. To exemplify altruistic sacrifice and benevolent determination, this monument depicts her in active duty during the flood crisis.
