Thailand: Northern residents plan their evacuation due to heavy rains and floods

BANGKOK, 7 August 2010 (NNT) — The heavy rain that causes widespread flooding in Northern Thailand has continually ravaged residents’ properties and belongings.

Students and teachers of the Ban Nam Mong Pang Sa School in Nan province on Saturday were reportedly evacuated from the school by boat due to a broken bridge from heavy rainfall, while overall flood level across Nan Province has tended to become lower despite a close monitoring by the manipulation officers. Residents, however, are warned to prepare for flood evacuation and move their belongings to safer areas.
