tombkk Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks for the clarification. However, I heard there is some flooding on Chaengwattana Road in front of the Government Complex. Is that not severe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 The flooding was a bit west from reports I have seen and not a problem for cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulnewman Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Muang Phitsanulok? So the (Thai) lady in the office where I work insists that the Department of Employment and the Immigration Police offices here in Muang Phitsanulok will be closed until November 1. She says "all government offices all over Thailand." Town is not flooded, nor are those offices (actually, I'm not sure just where Department of Employment is located.) If anyone happens to know more on this, one way or the other, I would appreciate hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone happens to know more on this, one way or the other, I would appreciate hearing. I've just found a comment in the News section of ThaiVisa: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted Yesterday, 17:28 Provinces Affected by Thai National Flood Holiday BANGKOK (Xinhua) -- The cabinet on Tuesday decided to declare Oct. 27-28 and Oct. 31 an official holiday in 21 flood-hit provinces, including Bangkok, so that people in flood-prone areas would be able to brace for the expected deluge. Those 21 provinces are central SukhoThai, Pichit, Pitsanulok, Nakornsawan, Uthai Thani, Chai Nat, Singburi, Angthong, Ayutthaya, Pathum Thani, Nonthaburi, Lopburi, Saraburi, Nakornnayok, Prachin Buri, Chasoengsao, Subhan Buri, ankorn Pathom, Khampaengpet, Tak and Bangkok provinces. Seems pretty sure the offices I had planned to go to will be closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
