1. This refers to the Princess Maha Chakri Award (PMCA) which was launched in 2015 during Her Royal Highness (HRH) Maha Chakri Sirindhorn's 60th Anniversary Birthday Celebration in recognition of HRH's contribution, commitment and devotion to teachers and education, particularly the disadvantaged groups in Thailand and Southeast Asia.
2. The PMCA is an award given to outstanding teachers of 11 countries in Southeast Asia (ASEAN + Timor Leste) who have made significant impact to students' lives.
3. The Award is given every two years since 2015. The Princess Maha Chakri Award Foundation has worked closely with the Ministry of Education of 11 countries in the selection process.

Every two years, each Ministry of Education will submit their nominations to the PMCA Foundation and the Foundation will submit to HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhom for endorsement. Once the nominations are endorsed, the PMCA Committee Members will embark on a mission to meet with the teachers who receive the Award, and relevant stakeholders such as the High Officials at the Ministry of Education and the Thai Ambassador in the country.
