eliotness Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 We've just had the DPM saying the floods won't be as bad as 2011, well maybe he could have to eat his words. Mother Nature has a way of making pompous people look very silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Loh Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Looks like 2011 again. The dams are full and huge storms on the horizon. Mismanagement starting in earnest in Ayutthaya and Ang Thong. Even the mightiest mouths can't stop mother nature. Hope they learn by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
