Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt, who has now been in the position for three months, faces some major challenges if he wants to solve flood problems in the capital following four days of extremely heavy rainfall last week.
Submerged roads and pavements caused by the persistent heavy rain that began early in the week paralysed traffic in several parts of the city. Among the worst hit areas were Don Muang, Chaengwattana, Phahon Yothin, Bang Khen and Lat Krabang.
