                 Foreign currency risk

                 The subsidiaries’ exposure to foreign currency risk is considered to be low since the majority

                 of their business transactions are denominated in local currency. As at 31 December 2020,
                 a subsidiary in Thailand has balance of deposits amounting to VND 601 million (2019: VND
                 606 million), and a subsidiary in Vietnam has balance of long-term loans in foreign currency

                 amounting to Baht 1,492 million (2019: balance of deposit and long-term loans amounting to
                 USD 1 million and Baht 1,589 million, respectively).

           39.2  Fair values of financial instruments

                 Since the majority of the Group’ financial instruments are short-term in nature or carrying
                 interest at rates  close  to  the  market  interest rates, their fair  value is not  expected  to  be
                 materially different from the amounts presented in the statement of financial position, except

                 the following.

                                                                                          (Unit: Million Baht)

                 Bond Market Association.

           40.   Capital management

                 The  primary objective  of  the Company’s  capital  management is  to ensure  that it  has
                 appropriate capital structure in order to support its business and maximise shareholder value.

                 As at 31 December 2020, the Group's debt-to-equity ratio was 1.37:1 (2019: 1.38:1) and
