Not so many years ago (within the last seven) in Issaan the rivers almost ran dry and standpipes were on the point of being used

 

Which countries don't have weather cycles? Some years will be flooded, some droughts.

Fires where I live are an annual occurrence and premeditated. There's a 10 km road that runs from where I live to Route 24. Everyday it is used as a rubbish dump by drivers traveling it. For the local amphur to clean this up after a year of dumping will be cost a lot and is labour intensive. So what they do every year, around this time, they send out a tractor, towing a grass shredder down this route shredding all accessible dumped rubbish and dry vegetation. We all know that once this has been done someone will put a match to it. Always done at night. Consequently we have this annual wild fires. 

No sooner that the fire has cooled then out come the self employed rubbish collectors who collect all none perishables and take it for recycling. 

Also done on the lane dividers on Route 24 where road users throw trash out of their car windows.
