Bangkok Warned Of Flood Threat As Heavy Rain Predicted

[yourauntbob]

All the flood-prone communities, home to around 1,200 families, are located along the Chao Phraya River in areas that have no embankment.

???? 120 Billion ???

"The water is seeping in from under the embankment," Science Minister Plodprasob Surassawadee said yesterday in his capacity as the chair of the Water and Flood Management Commission (WFMC).

He believed the problem stemmed from the fact that the embankment does not have foundation poles, and the high water pressure is causing the seepage. He added that the WFMC has recruited engineers from private companies in a bid to quickly and efficiently end the flooding in Sukhothai.

SEEPING!!!! It was rushing down the bloody roads!!

.

"We have to identify the riskiest spots and try to minimise that risk," Plodprasob said.

But that's what they are supposed to have done with the 120 Billion after last years floods. Just what have they done since last year to justify that expenditure?

they have used the money to make several MP's extremely wealthy....

To all those stupid enough to blaim Yingluck, it has always been happening and always will until Bangkok is relocated.

But who was the stupidest of all to make eliminating floods a campaign promise?

Who was stupidest?

The guy that lost the election seems to have her trumped since the goal of campaign promises is to get elected.

She succeeded. Dumb like a fox...
