The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration has put all 50 districts in the capital on alert for possible flooding, Bangkok deputy governor Malinee Sukvejvorakij said on Thursday.

The weather forecast is for heavy rain in many parts of the country including Bangkok between Sept 14 and Sept 17.

Dr Malinee said all districts were told to install water pumps in flood-prone spots, so that rainwater could be quickly drained away.

Don't worry. The Puea Thaksin regime guaranteed 100% no floods in Bangkok.

I hope Bangkok is under 10 meters of water by the weekend. That way maybe enough Thai's will make up and stop voting this corruption into office each election. The Thai people voted! Thaksin Speaks, Thailand Sinks. Heck of a deal!
