MEA Recognized as Human Rights Model Organization for Fourth Consecutive Year

The Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA) has been honored with the 'Human Rights Model Organization' award for 2026, marking its fourth year of recognition.

On September 24, 2026, the Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA) received the 'Human Rights Model Organization' award at the excellence level for the year 2026. According to a report by Prachachat Business, Ms. Siwaporn Baenglarp, Assistant Governor of the MEA, accepted the honor from Police Lieutenant General Ruttapol Naorattana, the Minister of Justice.

This achievement marks the fourth consecutive year that the MEA has been recognized for its commitment to human rights standards within its organizational operations. The award serves as a formal acknowledgment of the state enterprise's ongoing efforts to integrate ethical practices and human rights principles into its corporate governance and service delivery.

For residents and expatriates living in Bangkok and surrounding areas served by the MEA, this recognition highlights the utility provider's focus on maintaining professional and ethical standards in its public service mandate. While the award reflects the organization's internal policy successes, it does not directly alter electricity tariffs or service procedures for consumers. Further details regarding the specific criteria used for this year's evaluation or any new internal policies implemented by the MEA to maintain this status remain to be confirmed by the organization's official communications.
