East Water, represented by Mr. Bordin Udol, Chief Executive Officer, and the Wastewater Management Authority (WMA), represented by Mr. Chira Wongburana, Director, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on the "Joint Study on Wastewater Management and Water Reuse in Thailand." The collaboration aims to strengthen the nation's water security and support the sustainable growth of cities, industries, and future investments.

This strategic partnership combines the expertise of both organizations to maximize the efficiency of Thailand's water resource management. The initiative is designed to address emerging water challenges, including climate change, increasing drought risks, and rising water demand driven by the expansion of high-growth industries such as data centers, advanced electronics, and semiconductors. Under the MOU, both parties will jointly explore advanced water treatment technologies and develop practical water reuse models in collaboration with local authorities, with the goal of establishing scalable and sustainable water management solutions.

Mr. Bordin Udol, Chief Executive Officer of East Water, stated, "Modern water management must focus on optimizing resource efficiency across the entire value chain in line with the principles of the Circular Economy. Water reuse reduces reliance on natural water sources while creating long-term economic and environmental value. Leveraging East Water's extensive integrated water supply network across the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), this collaboration will contribute meaningfully to strengthening Thailand's long-term water security.''

Mr. Chira Wongburana, Director of the Wastewater Management Authority, added, "The WMA's core mission is to develop environmentally responsible wastewater treatment systems. Combined with East Water's expertise in integrated water resource management, this partnership will drive comprehensive studies covering both technical feasibility and economic viability, laying the foundation for sustainable urban development in the years ahead."

This public-private collaboration marks a significant milestone in strengthening Thailand's water infrastructure and advancing efficient, sustainable water resource management in line with international best practices.
