We would like to invite everyone to make merit during the 2026 Vegetarian Festival by abstaining from meat and conducting themselves in accordance with moral principles, thereby cultivating merit while also taking care of their health through exercise.”

Ms. Thaninthorn said, “On behalf of Saha Group, I am delighted to take part in the 18th ‘Nuduan Vegetarian Food Festival’ under the theme ‘Eat Good, Feel Good, Do Good.’ The theme conveys three important messages. Eat Good means choosing vegetarian food that is good, high-quality, clean, and safe. Feel Good means taking care of both body and mind to stay refreshed, healthy, and happy. Do Good means doing good deeds, making merit, sharing, and passing on positive things to others. Through this initiative, we can turn every meal into an opportunity to care for our health, turn our good intentions into a force for kindness, and share merit and happiness with those around us. ‘Eat Good, Feel Good, Do Good’—let us enjoy quality vegetarian food, make merit, find happiness, and pass on good things together.”
