Hua Hin Mayor Nopporn Wutthikul held a meeting on Monday (Apr 22) with local government officials to discuss immediate and long-term solutions for the severe drought affecting the Hua Hin, particularly impacting residents in Khao Takiab.

 

The meeting was attended by Deputy Mayor Atichat Chaisri, Municipal Council Chairman Udom Duangkae, Deputy Chairman Thongchai Petchsangkram, Council Member Cheep Suksri, Municipal Clerk Jeerawat Phramanee, and heads of relevant government departments.

 

The discussions focused on the declining water levels at the Hua Na reservoir, which have significantly reduced the capacity for normal water production and distribution.

 

The reservoir’s low levels have been unable to sustain adequate water pressure to reach all households through municipal pipelines.

I suppose that one truck is better than none.

It sounds like a few more may be needed.

Developers have been building like crazy for the last 20 years in Hua Hin without a care in the world for infrastructure and services... City planning is non-existent.

Reap what you sow.

How is the water situation in the apartment buildings in Hua Hin?  Water trucks do not really help there.
