Mr. Montri Luengingkasoot, deputy director-general of Thailand’s, Department of Mineral Resources (DMR), reported today (Wednesday) that the Geo-Hazards Operation Center is keeping a close watch on situations which may lead to landslides in risky areas across the country, especially in the North.

 

The DMR has taken its usual measures, including strengthening local networks to handle emergency situations during the rainy season, when landslides become a natural threat to many.

 

The DMR has recently conducted surveys and found that 54 provinces, 332 districts and 1,084 tambon are at risk of landslides this year. The North, in particular, has the highest chance of landslides from May to September, due to the south western monsoon and tropical cyclones crossing the country.
