Police Lieutenant Colonel Pongsakorn Kwanmuang apologized – Explained the floods at the end of the week – Confirmed that officers have been working for the past 5 years, the situation has improved
On October 4, Police Lieutenant Colonel Pongsakorn Kwanmuang of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) posted a personal post on Facebook explaining the cause of the flooding in many areas of Bangkok last Friday and Saturday Ready to apologize to the who suffered
The BMA spokesman said last Friday and Saturday, many people who encountered the problem of the floods shared photos and comments through those outlets. First of all, I have to thank all the voices that have been shared. And I apologize to everyone who suffered from the floods this time. BMA has followed everyone’s comment and has taken all the information to correct it immediately.
The event of much more than 100mm of heavy rain in many places is due to rain in the rain-filled area coming from the Gulf of Thailand. The nature of the rain moves slowly, heavy rain going nowhere. Also, it was a massive drop for 2 consecutive days originally on Thursday. Bangkok has already taken care of the water canal, but when it falls continuously, the water drain must be drained immediately without time.
BMA admitted that the flood problem persisted in many areas. It also avoids floods Not completely due to the problem of very heavy rains And physical space Who knows that we are located in low areas It looks like a frying pan. The surface of the garden is concrete. Small old pipes will be difficult to increase in size or to build. And the ground itself sank every year.
Although Bangkok will do its best with the resources, manpower and money that we have But from the intention to solve this problem, if we compare it with 5 years ago, it would be obvious that someone remembered that in the past it rains, where the flood they are everywhere.
* In the past, floods averaged more than 30 cm, but now the maximum average water is 10 cm, not more than 20 cm.
* Before, it took more than 6 hours for water to dry. And there are some points that have to wait a day. But currently it only takes 2 hours to accelerate the maximum of 3 hours
Based on the information, I can answer the questions that many people asked themselves every time it rained: “Will Bangkok do nothing? When it rains, the water floods and nothing will be better.” Bangkok. Please confirm
* Before it rains, be it day or night, we never sleep, our brothers and sisters are ready to watch the flood, the street sweepers wait, without going anywhere, cleaning the garbage that floats with the water so that it does not block the He passed. Drainage The gates were opened and prepared to receive new rainwater everywhere and, most importantly, BMA had dredged the canal and opened 96.6% of the total length of the canal. In addition to washing and cleaning the sewer, finished before the rain comes every year.
* During the rainy season, BEST members from the Office of Drainage and 50 districts will expect to receive a signal. Where there is a problem, they will go through the rain and act to resolve the problem immediately, regardless of the flood beyond the point of risk. The downed tree monitoring point, because these issues need to be resolved immediately, cannot wait.
* Our long-term flooding problem is ongoing and helpful. From the original, our drainage was natural. The rain fell and poured into the pipe. Water flows from the end of the pipe into the canal. The water flowed from the canals to the river five years ago, mostly like this. Although the water takes a long time to travel rather than shrinking until it dries up, Bangkok has brought new innovations and technologies. Come to manage water systematically in all dimensions, whether
* 4 giant drainage tunnels with a total length of 19 37 kilometers, total drainage efficiency 195 cubic meters per second (1) Prempakorn Water Dream System Project (2) Makkasan Bueng (3) Khlong Saen Saeb (4) Khlong Bang Sue and The We will build 5 more to cover Thonburi and Phra Nakhon (1) Nong Bon Bueng on the Chao Phraya River (2) Prempakorn Canal from Bang Bua Canal to Chao Phraya (3) Saen Saeb Canal to extend the original length (4) channels. Thaweewattana (5) Khlong Phraya Ratchamontri.
* The drainage system on the main road (Pipe Jacking) drains the flooded water from people’s houses and from the traffic surface to drain the canal and the Chao Phraya River. 13 projects have been used in 5 projects.
* 4 underground water banks, 2 in use and 42 reservoirs, totaling approximately 16 million cubic meters.
* Flood protection center As a control center Manage a modern drainage system to provide immediate water protection and remediation functions.
* 2 radar stations, Nong Khaem Raem Khob Khlum station at 150 km and Nong Chok Cob Khlum station at 120 km, including two stations covering the Bangkok area
This last time. We appreciate all the voices that reflect on this issue. And encouragement for the older One Who has been working hard all along We hug and always accept, it is something we want to give today. Tomorrow the flood problems are gone. But we always insist that we never stand still today, both on rainy days. And rainy days Solving the flood problem in Bangkok, we will always do and try our best. #Floods #car traffic #rain
