Flash Floods in Thailand: A Repeat of 2011?

The water was ⁢about to flow into the⁢ Western‌ Sea. Some very influential politicians blocked ⁣it because they did not ⁣want⁣ it to flood their territory.

When he ⁣exited east, he was blocked again.

Politicians buying land for housing developments ⁣He is afraid of flooding his family’s economic area Land and housing‌ developments cannot be sold.

large body‍ of water So I’m annoyed….

I’ll go left, heading out to sea toward the Tha Chin River. You ​won’t let me go.

When I go right Exiting at Samut⁤ Prakan via Minburi, you won’t let me ​go anymore.

So the “middle cut” spills over to the center of “Bangkok”!

The 2011 Floods in Bangkok

The floods in ⁢Bangkok in⁢ 2011 have⁢ become an image of “disturbing history” that has remained etched in the minds ⁢of the villagers. Remember it in ‍your brain to this day.

Saying ⁢”Nari⁤ is Prime Minister” by flooding houses – flooding the city!

This year, 2024, the zodiac⁢ anniversary falls 12 years since “Nari of the‍ Shinawatra family” became Prime Minister‌ again.

It’s not paranormal, it’s like the paranormal.

The Current ‍Situation

MP 500​ immediately anointed “Pae Thong Than” Prime Minister in the House of Representatives.

The water suddenly flooded.

Open the auspicious time in the north first,⁣ as in 2011, modernizing ⁢the villagers.‌ who does not believe in ​the stories “Superstitions and Superstitions” on the theme “Women Prime Minister”

“Two‍ Minds-Two Hearts” Convulsions

Because I saw it right away: As soon as “Pae Thong Than” became ‌Prime Minister, Nong Nam came immediately. Just like the ‌Apude era!

I don’t know if it’s paranormal or‍ asexual. All⁤ I know⁣ is that the brothers and⁤ sisters of‍ Mae Sai,⁢ Chiang Rai, are⁢ vomiting now. ⁤because of the accumulated rain

Then it came down and hit like a torrent.

Flash floods hit⁤ the head and​ ears. Don’t worry about packing in time. Life was almost impossible to survive.

Because it’s coming fast, it’s coming hard. Attacked from both the Burmese and Thai sides, trapping Mae Sai “in a sandwich”.

Help and Support

Oh my⁤ God… God protect ‌me.

It is ⁣a ⁣great fortune that ⁢we were born in Thailand. The land that holds the‍ heart of every Thai. ‌There is a ⁣bond that overcomes suffering and promotes‌ mutual happiness in every situation.

If​ you listen to people on the Burmese side who are facing the same water‍ situation as us.

We must ⁢raise our hands above our heads. Thank you for being born Thai. With much kindness and warmth.

At this moment Bangkok⁤ is free because I don’t know how many thousands ​of people are ​there. Both ​people, ⁣both things, both instruments Including Army, Navy and Air Force.

Hi, let’s go help people in ‍Mae Sai.

If “Mae Sai” had‍ sobbed, she⁤ would⁤ not have‌ sobbed ‌because​ she was sad, but because she ⁢was overwhelmed by ‍the kindness that flowed to help.

Let’s just​ say that the kindness was “so strong” that the ⁤forest water and rain water had to run and flee into the Mekong. Leave only the​ mud:⁢ mud. Let’s⁢ help each other shovel it away.

Government Response

Yesterday (September 12, 2024), Prime Minister Pae Thongthan was seen wearing thigh-high boots, stomping down the aisles “taking over the media space” in Mae Sai.

I saw people hugging and‍ exchanging tears‍ with the villagers ‍who were longing for the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister‌ came to⁣ hug, making both parties feel ⁤at‌ ease.

But government agencies, volunteer⁣ units and soldiers probably still ⁣can’t feel comfortable because looking ​at the water’s appearance this time doesn’t mean “come and go.”

I think the chances of him ‌being “tricked” again are quite high.

Watch the weather ‍bulletin of the “Meteorological Department”. Watch the warning announcement of the “Disaster Prevention ⁢and ​Mitigation Department”.

The area ‍of ​​​45 provinces is “more than half of the country” both north-south-west in the next 5-6 days, I have to say

Creep – and‌ the sky is distorted. Sok: the rain is changing. The waters overflowed and‍ overflowed.

This…both weather‍ conditions and the Department of Prevention reported‍ it

13-17 September⁣ Monsoon depression will move down and extend over lower‌ northern‌ region. Northeast and upper central region

Entering the low pressure zone Central Socialist Republic of Vietnam⁢ Zone

Meanwhile, the moderate southwest monsoon blows over the upper Andaman Sea. ‌

Thailand and⁣ the upper Gulf of ⁤Thailand will​ have more strength​ This causes ‍more rain and heavy ⁤to very ‍heavy rain in some areas.

The north-eastern, central and southern​ western regions

For⁤ wind waves in the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand will have more strength in the period September 14-17.

The Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf of ⁢Thailand have waves 2-3 meters high. In areas with thunderstorms, waves higher than 3 meters.

and the ⁣”National Water Resources⁣ Office” announced​ it.

“It was found that heavy ⁢rains have ⁢accumulated in the ‍northern area. Northeast and Lao People’s Democratic Republic

As a result, during the period from September 12 to 16, the water level of the Mekong River continued to rise.”

Areas to Watch Out For

Areas to watch⁣ out for in case of flash floods Flash floods and floods

Summary of areas that need to be marked Don’t wait for the water⁤ to come ‍and ‌it will float away on its ​own.

There are ⁤11 provinces to watch out for ​in the Northern Region. No need to tell you. You ‍already know where they are.

Isaan 20 provinces:⁢ Loei, Nong Khai, Bueng Kan,‌ Nong Bua Lamphu, Sakon Nakhon, Udon Thani, Chaiyaphum, Khon‌ Kaen, Maha Sarakham, Kalasin, Mukdahan, ‌Roi Et, Yasothon, Amnat‌ Charoen, Nakhon Ratchasima, ‍Buriram, Sisaket⁣ and Ubon Ratchathani.

8​ central provinces: Nakhon Nayok, Prachinburi, Chachoengsao, Chonburi,⁣ Rayong, Chanthaburi and Trat.

6 southern provinces: Ranong, Phang Nga, Phuket, Krabi, Trang and Satun.

Conclusion

Yesterday ‍I⁣ heard the Minister of the ⁢Interior “Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul” say that he himself would not go​ to Mae ‍Sai.

Why did⁢ he go, he⁢ went ‌to disturb the‍ officials. who was⁤ working in vain. ⁣Let the⁢ deputy minister‍ go to his place.

He personally monitors and coordinates the work of the various⁤ units. Whoever is missing something, wherever‌ he wants it, ‍will be ​sent down.

It should be. Going down now is just a disaster. In a Chula Kathin event like this,⁤ being ‌the “central station” for both coordination ⁣and delivery and procurement of such things is “the‌ most important thing.”

“Mae Sai-North” is ​already a‍ disaster area.

But in the other⁤ 45 provinces the⁣ “Department⁣ for Disaster Prevention and Mitigation” has raised the alarm.

It‍ is believed ⁢that the “Department of Defense” has properly performed its duty of “prevention”.

Announcing the villagers in advance is “prevention” rather than letting ⁣people drown without realizing it and then having⁣ to “relieve” them ​later.

But you also⁣ have to understand the nature of people.

Few people⁤ will “listen – believe” and prepare to deal with ‌the ⁢situation. Most people will instead talk to each other at work. That is, wait ‌until the water floods completely. Let’s go up and ride on the roof.

And then she said “It arrived so fast…I couldn’t finish packing my things”!

Therefore, the Minister‍ of Chronicle It should‍ be emphasized to the governors of each province, prevention units in each province.

Spread the news “News Broadcast Tower” to every sub-district – district frequently

together with the administrators of each sub-district-district Must go out and check the⁣ availability and give advice to the villagers in ⁣high-risk ⁢areas‍ on their own.

Prime Minister, let him be⁢ a “guest” at the event. What really helps? It is not possible ⁣in practical work.

It helps emotionally – mentally That’s all… yes⁣ Villagers and ‌workers will be ⁢encouraged by the visit ‍of the Prime Minister. The Prime ⁣Minister has ‍seen the ‍work.

Every person‍ – every⁣ part ‌Enough to be rejuvenated and mentally energized.

As for the work itself, there must ‍be a “work ⁤mother” who supervises ‌it, as Mr. Anutin does.

Get down ‍now, be a hero in front​ of the camera. But increase the burden on subordinates, namely officials. Make​ it twice ⁢as difficult for him unnecessarily.

The necessary work is to coordinate⁣ on the territory. While waiting to provide him with wood, tools⁢ and equipment, this is what is‌ called “manager”.

Where ⁢the “Prevention Department” announced flood surveillance areas and flood-prone‌ areas, “Bangkok” was not included.

Can I add “Bangkok area” to the area?

It’s nothing….

I fear that “Prime Minister Aung Ing” will lose to “Prime Minister Pu” in the statistics.

If “Bangkok doesn’t flood”!
