Deputy Interior Minister Distributes Flood Relief in Rom Klao
Deputy Interior Minister Phonpee Suwannawee has delivered thousands of food and water supplies to flood-affected residents in the Rom Klao housing area.
On October 4, 2026, Deputy Interior Minister Phonpee Suwannawee continued his relief efforts in the Rom Klao housing district for the second consecutive day. According to a report by Thai Post, the minister, accompanied by his son, distributed 6,000 ready-to-eat meals, 10,000 bottles of drinking water, and various dry food supplies to local residents impacted by ongoing flooding.
During his visit, the minister noted that water levels in certain areas remain high, exceeding 1.30 meters. To address the situation, he is coordinating with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) and the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) to repair damaged sandbag embankments and accelerate water drainage operations.
For residents and travelers in the area, this situation indicates that significant flooding persists in parts of the Rom Klao district, which may cause localized travel disruptions and access issues. While relief efforts are underway, those planning to visit or transit through the area should monitor local news for updates on road conditions and flood mitigation progress. It remains to be confirmed how long the current drainage operations will take to significantly reduce water levels and when normal traffic flow will be fully restored in the affected zones.
