Jonathan Fairfield Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Heavy rainfall to affect 30 provinces BANGKOK, 3 August 2017 (NNT) - The Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation has issued warnings to 30 provinces in the northern, northeastern, eastern, and southwestern regions to brace for flash floods and mudslides in the next few days. DDPM Director-General Chatchai Promlert revealed that his department has issued flash flood and mudslide warnings in 10 northern provinces. They include Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Lamphun, Lampang, Phrae, Uttaradit, Sukhothai, Phitsanulok and Phetchabun. In the northeastern region, there are 12 at-risk provinces including Nong Bua Lamphu, Nong Khai, Bueng Kan, Udon Thani, Sakon Nakhon, Nakhon Phanom, Khon Kaen, Roi Et, Kalasin, Yasothon Sisaket, and Ubon Ratchathani. In the southern region, there are four at-risk provinces including Ranong, Phang Nga, Phuket, and Krabi. Officials in flood-prone areas have been instructed to closely follow weather conditions and prepare to dispatch mobile units to assist those in need. Warnings will be issued to at-risk residents near water sources, foothills, and areas that have been affected in the past. Officials have also been instructed to prepare shelters to accommodate people in the event of an evacuation. The current inundation in 10 provinces is affecting 101 districts and over 200,000 households. Meanwhile, the Meteorological Department reported that the southwesterly monsoon over the Andaman Sea and Thailand is beginning to intensify, resulting in more rainfall in the upper regions of the country as well as the southwestern provinces. Ships in the southern region are advised to proceed with caution, while smaller boats should remain ashore. -- nnt 2017-08-03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvavin Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Flood is no longer an in this country as generations after generations of politician are busy helping themselves after investing on their vote buying.

But maybe you just like the look of your idol prancing like an ageing ladyboy doing a fan dance? Now how did you work out that he is my idol? He isn't at all. I did have a lot of hope in his earlier days but very little faith now. Then again in my 24 years around Thailand I have had little faith in any politician of any party or colour. I suspect that at the time of the coup he thought it would be fairly easy to run the country and now he is realising that he bit off more than he can chew. Sadly for him as the person where the buck stops he has to rely on the people under him for advice in just the same way that all politicians do, and as most of them don't like bad news, the advice that they get is not necessarily what they need. That is why there is a chain of command and separate ministries. It is impossible nowadays for one person tp know everything and run a country. So to answer my question, what would you do in his position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
