Im just back from a whole day working as a volunteer on the western shore of chao paya river. The whole place is flooded, from 30cm to well over a meter. I spent the day delivering food by boat to people stuck in remote streets. The food was collected by a monk from Wat Bawon and we were 4 guy to do the delivery, some time climbing electric poles to bring food to elderly people stuck in 2nd floors. Also we rescued an old beggars who was stuck on a bridge with his two dogs...apparently he was there since a few days, unable to go because of the water and nothing to eat or drink... We also had a scare with a big ugly piece of floating wood, thinking it was a crocodile... At some point we passed the Chaopaya 3 soapy massage place, the street in front of it can only be reached by boat now. Now I smell of klong water, but I m happy I did something to help.

Report from Bangkok Post dated 4 November 2011 :- Subway at risk from advancing floods ======================== Thailand's worst floods in half a century reached the edge of downtown Bangkok on Friday, threatening some underground rail stations and forcing the closure of a major shopping centre. About 20 per cent of the capital is now submerged in floodwater contaminated by rubbish, dead animals and industrial waste, raising fears about outbreaks of disease in the densely populated metropolis of 12 million people. The slow-moving water is now just a few kilometres (miles) away from business and tourist districts, despite reassurances from the government that central Bangkok would be spared. The floodwater arrived at the Lat Phrao intersection on the northern edge of the city centre early Friday, prompting the closure of the Central Plaza shopping mall. A spokesman for the Bangkok metro said that three subway stations -- Lat Phrao, Phahon Yothin and Chatuchak Park -- were at risk and might have to be shut down if the water rose to 40 centimetres (16 inches) outside. "We have deployed officials at all risk stations to assess the situation hourly," he said. Nearby Chatuchak Weekend Market -- a popular tourist attraction -- will re-open this weekend at the request of traders, but officials have warned them to be on alert for possible flooding. The floods -- caused by unusually heavy rains and failure to release enough water from dams in the early part of the monsoon -- have killed 442 people and damaged the homes and livelihoods of millions around the country. The authorities have issued an evacuation order for eight Bangkok districts out of a total of 50 in the capital, and for certain areas in four others. The 12 districts have a combined official population of 1.7 million people -- far more than government shelters can accommodate. Many have chosen to stay in their homes despite risks including electrocution, disease and lack of food and drinking water, complicating relief efforts. The authorities are attempting to drain the floods through waterways in the east and west of the sprawling capital and out to sea. But many roads have also become rivers as the seemingly unstoppable mass of water creeps southwards. Worst-hit residents have complained that their homes are being sacrificed to save downtown Bangkok's shopping malls, luxury hotels and the houses of the wealthy elite, triggering protests and the destruction of some flood barriers. The waters have swamped Bangkok's number two airport Don Mueang, which usually serves mostly domestic destinations, but the kingdom's main air gateway Suvarnabhumi east of the city centre is operating as usual. The main airport is surrounded by a 3.5 metre high flood embankment monitored around the clock, officials told media invited to see the defences. Suvarnabhumi general manager Somchai Sawasdeepon said the airport would put its emergency plan into effect if the water reached 2.5 metres deep. "I believe we can evacuate all passengers and aircraft within 24 hours," he said. "Now the airport is operating normally. There are no signs that worry me. The water level also doesn't concern me." Thai authorities failed to save a number of major industrial parks from the floods, despite earlier assurances they would be protected. The crisis is taking its toll on the lucrative Thai tourism industry, with countries including the United States, Britain, Singapore, Canada and the Netherlands advising against all but essential travel to Bangkok.

Quote: from bkkz on 7:27 pm on Nov. 4, 2011 Army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha stated his support to protect all the sluice gates to complement the police so as to slow the waterflow into inner Bangkok..... ...... He admitted that he was frustated to see people suffering and his soldiers having to work extremely hard to help the people and protect Bangkok.
Hate to be a wet blanket, BK, but blame the metre deep floods all around for wetting the blanket The army chief's assertion, of course, is greatly reassuring, specially to those amongst us who recall vividly the thorough professionalism and military efficiency with which it controlled the rioting reds in 2010 and protected Bangkok (inner, outer, central, upper, lower, whatever) from mayhem and devastation.

And the mighty USA was very organized and efficient during the New Orleans flood/huricane right...? The thais are doing the best they can, they have the good will for sure, and they suffer yet go and do their work as they need the money to live on a daily bassis. So I suggest you read BK's post.. and look at it as he wrote... Not a time to be bashful now.. but a time to try and help and actually enjoy it even double. As long as there is no closing of airport and the hotels you usually stay in, I think its safe to assume the thai workers will get to their job and wait for you.... Ap.-

Anyway, at the end of the day, it's up to you to decide if you want to come here and help out or not. I am not going to persuade you any further. You have seen the facts. In the mean time, I will be enjoying myself, and those who are here will be doing the same. Let dirty guru and Blonk tell you all the fun they are having. Kudos to madfrog for really helping out.

Bitching and forum shit aside- I could have cancelled - nearly did- But decided "you know what " if we all did so - the tough times in Bangkok /Thailand would be tougher *(for them) They have provided me with my playground in life- The silly romances- and profound- the sexual magic- lessons - and time finding out there is a better solution than the west - The other reason was I could report "honestly" on matters and the up side to being here - as a sex tourist- And you know at heart we are all brothers- And kudos to some who have been there and just leaving as other brothers arrive I agree with BK that madfrog should be congratulated as he leaves Thailand Today after a Two month stint - on a job well done- :: (helping Thais as a Voulnteer) And Blonk (on his 40th birthday Today) after all the knockers - for in his madness and imagination and adventures- signing on in tough times- Showing his love of Thailand Thats really the bottom line- Come over those that are thinking about it- Really! You want exclusive attension - the joys of sex and being in huge demand-? Well it doesnt get any better than now- many girls are desperate Head here now - Your country needs you- The one that at heart you "really "love :: :: :: :: Everybody standup- "have a heart" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA4CEk7Ohjw&feature=related Remember this song in a Thai cinema with some hot piece of arse next to You?
