    Still BMA in water power. Flood still in Pathumthani, yes, we came back home, by boat, trying to clean our homes, but can't evacuate anything outside as water still. People from Bangkok should come here, feel the smell, the trashes everywhere, ...
    What a good show of human being what I saw from Bangkok which not ready to get water to the ankle level. People here support, help each other, trying to survive as they can.
    In a month, u can imagine (or u cannot), how to take a shit, clean yourself, get fresh water? Bangkok won the individualism of all European citizens. Good luck for your future.

    Bangkok post headline: 'Bangkok floods see gradual decline'... I wish the same could be said about all the graft and corruption that's going on.
