Chang Hua Mun literally translates as "weighing a potato", but it’s spoken as a pun for "let it be that way” or “who cares”. It is one of those Thai emotional expressions when there is a feeling of - “Okay, I’ll face it whatever it will be”, or “forget about it”. It is also meant as an appreciation, an expression of regret, or even to say never mind. It is spoken more intimately than ‘Mai Pen Rai’, and used within a family context or between friends.
Chang Hua Mun is also the name of a very successful Royal Project. A story is told about the King receiving gifts of vegetables and leaving some potatoes on small scales in his office. He next saw them when they were budding (still on the scales) so he brought them to Petchaburi and gave them to farmers to use as breeding stock.
This project started in 2008, when King Bhumibol purchased in two plots of land near the Nong Seua Reservoir. The land was initially 120 Rai (47.5 acre) then a further 130 Rai (51.3 acres) totaling 250 Rai (98.8 acres). The land had been degraded and was unwanted with significant soil damage from chemical contamination. It has now been restored and developed into an agricultural and livestock showcase and a model of sustainable farming practices.
