A family of four members took to social media to plead for help after spending 13 hours in a flood at their home in the southern province of Narathiwas, and they were safely rescued by authorities.


A Facebook user, Angles Keef, shared a picture of her family members submerged in chest-high floodwaters yesterday, December 25. She sought assistance in the caption saying…

“We have been in the floodwater for over 13 hours since last night (December 24). We are both cold and hungry. Please help us. Any department, please come to us. House number 175/1 Baan Bangota Pulasmeelae, Moo 2, Bangosato district, Natathiwas province. #FourPeopleAndOneCat We could no longer stand like this.”

 

Netizens encouraged the family in the comments section and helped them seek help from various departments. Thai media agencies also spread their story until rescue arrived at their home.

 

The four members of the family are reported to be two women, a man, a young boy and a cat. Two of the family were elderly.
