The railway track under water
Our office ended the week early on Wednesday, leaving those unaffected by flood with extended time off. Now as everything goes back into normalcy, the Thais while on guard are still wearing their "mai pen rai" attitude. It is as though the flood was a natural catastrophe that we can blame no one for but the bad weather. The scattered rain could not be the cause, the Government agencies' slow response was. As the water level in the river falls below the crisis alert level, everything seems to be restored. No one's asking what happened to the broken dam and no one's questioning the lack of reinforcement at the river. As usual, the Thais goes amnesic as they to the tune of Beatles' "Let it be" in chorus
