Flood Relief Efforts Underway in Pua District, Nan Province
Captain Thamanat Prompow and his team are providing emergency aid to flood and landslide victims in Nan Province, focusing on water supply and debris removal.
On August 24, 2026, Captain Thamanat Prompow, leader of the Kla Tham Party, led a delegation to Pua District in Nan Province to address the aftermath of severe flooding and landslides. The mission, which included local representatives and the Thamanat Prompow Foundation, aims to provide immediate relief to residents affected by widespread damage.
To address the critical shortage of clean water caused by mud-clogged wells and infrastructure, the team has deployed two mobile kitchens, 1,000 water buckets, and 300 large 1,000-liter water storage tanks. Additionally, they have coordinated the delivery of mobile toilets to the area. Heavy machinery, including excavators and trucks, has been mobilized to clear mud and debris from roads and residential properties to restore access and sanitation.
For residents and travelers in the region, this situation highlights ongoing infrastructure challenges following extreme weather. While relief efforts are active, those planning to visit or reside in Pua District should be aware that local water systems may remain compromised and road access could be subject to intermittent closures due to cleanup operations. It remains to be confirmed how long the recovery process will take and when local water infrastructure will be fully restored to operational status. Travelers are advised to monitor local updates regarding road conditions and public health advisories in the affected areas.
