CHIANG MAI, 7 October 2011 (NNT) – The northern province of Chiang Mai is now under renovation after the flood has subsided while preparations are being made ahead of the upcoming tourist season and special events late this year.
During a meeting to evaluate the local flood situation and the rehabilitation effort at the Chiang Mai Municipal Office, Chiang Mai Governor ML Panadda Disakul stressed to all relevant agencies to expedite the repair of damages on the utility system and provide assistance for people in need.
