Good to see the "Flood prevention and disaster mitigation mob" are in full control. Time for a re-shuffle in their office 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's only knee deep...Ya wuss. When it gets neck deep and you're on you're roof, they'll help. Maybe, usually. Just joking Amigo. Sorry to hear you are having problems. Hope all works out well for you. I'm sure it's not funny on your end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same happened to a friend in BKK back then. He got most of his stuff uf to his 2nd floor but still cost him a million baht. Marines came and got him and transported he and his wife to Nakon Nayok. Floods aint funny. The pathetic part is that every polotician and their brother claim they can fix an un-fixable reality. Hurricanes hit New Orleans, Typhoons hit Manila. Floods happen in Krung Thep. They make an etraorinary mess, and I wish they never happened, BUT, I have been thru 4 Florida Hurricances, 2 Taiwan Typhoons. 1 Phillipines Typhoon, PLUS a major Taiwan earthquake, and a couple tornadoes in Florida (a pine tree fell on me). It's all in the cards folks. Edited September 10, 2022 by jaywalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidfan Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Here in Rangsit, Thanyaburi... Many places about 30cm odd deep for the last 2 days but today subsiding gradually. Was the same as poster above under 1m+ stinking leech infested water for 3 months. Had to eventually give up a.d retreat by boat to condo in On Nut.
