According to a report by Khaosod Online, veteran Thai actress and television host Tak Mayura recently shared her experience surviving a major flood that left her stranded in her home for eight days. The actress noted that while her residence is situated on slightly elevated ground, the severity of the flooding was unprecedented in recent decades, bringing wildlife such as fish and leeches onto her property.
Mayura detailed significant property damage, specifically to her electric gate system.
