Common guys, its only been happening for a few hundred years. Give them a chance to solve the issue or at least pretend there is a solution.

 

After all, it not like BKk is built upon a river delta, with a few hundred thousand sq kms of catchment and subject to monsoonal high intensity rainfall. 

 

Surely the solution is to keep the rainmaking squad grounded!

Shouldn't they have started that 100 years ago,than the problem wouldn't be so bad,they could have been Working on the problem by now.

They can use more of those big pumper trucks to clean out the Fat, Grease, and garbage from some of the filled up klongs, for a starter.

   Then they can use the money given to their department to actually fix up the problem instead of using it on themselves, hint h int.  wink  wink.

Geezer

500 people had a meeting and this was the result.  "Somebody" forgot to open the gates. Hmm.
