PHUKET:-- Phuket Governor Phakaphong Tavipatana presided over the meeting held at Phuket Provincial Hall yesterday (Aug 26) to pass on the message that officers are to start taking active steps to prevent any future water shortages to households across the island after a direct order from Minister of Interior Gen Anupong Paochinda.

 

Gen Anupong, who also serves as the Commander of the national Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM), pointed out that the Privy Council was a “situational observer” in affairs regarding any water shortages across the country, and watching any action taken to resolve water shortage issues, Governor Phakaphong explained.

 

“Minister Anupong informed that the Privy Council of Thailand as a situation observer had suggested that all relevant officials should solve the problems of local people as ordered by HM The King and apply the knowledge taught by King Rama 9 to solve problems in each area,” he said.

Ha ha ha! Unfortunately something else that will come to nothing, as it has always has done.

Perhaps they're going to start using Smart Water - that's the 'in phrase' isn't it?

If only the "bling" was backed up by actions or results.

I don't think they realise how foolish they look.

[Is this real]

Surely a direct order from the Minister of Interior is all that's needed to solve the shortages.
There's no need for anything to actually be done by providing funding.  
Kind of have to feel sorry for the Phuket officials that are told to fix a long term problem without any support or funding from Bangkok.
