Flood relief efforts in Thailand

Flood relief operations in Thailand have expanded across different regions, involving coordination between government officials and private sector partners.

In the Bang Kapi district, Deputy Minister of Transport Sannaphet Boonyamanee has been overseeing efforts to support residents at the Khlong Chan Flat and surrounding areas. Due to high water levels, flat-bottom boats are being utilized to deliver food and water. Relief efforts in this area involve the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, and the Royal Thai Army, with significant food donations provided by entities such as SRT Asset Co., Ltd. and the Port Authority of Thailand.

Relief efforts have also extended to Kanchanaburi province. The Port Authority of Thailand, in collaboration with various shipping lines and port operators including Hutchison Ports Thailand and the Thai International Container Terminal Association (TICTA), has coordinated the distribution of over 1,500 relief kits containing dry food, drinking water, and essential supplies to alleviate hardships for affected residents.
