It didn’t really affect me personally, but finding food in the supermarket was very difficult such as noodles, snacks, napkins, tissue, etc. It was like World War 3 situation, where everyone grabs their needs and runs away like theres a battle around in Thailand except its flooding. No, I did not relocate and my family is completely fine. The flood however did not affect my family’s business much. My maternal grandma and my uncle are living in Chiangmai. I’m not so sure if I am able to return to school on Monday because my soi is sort of flooded and I’m not sure if the Montri School Bus will be able to pick me up. Dealing with the personal motivation and self-discipline in terms of being a continuous online learner was ok, although I try managing time to complete all my assignments sometimes I end up staying up till midnight to complete them and some of my homework had weak scores but does not mean I will not work hard in order to achieve the standards.
The effects of the flood in Thailand in long or short terms could have been weather, or either the Earth is changing. Such as there was an earthquake in Turkey recently, a tornado disaster in California, Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan, Earthquake in China and Haiti. Well, my family has been watching the news everyday to see how the flood process has been going on and making sure that the water won’t flood our soi. My mom is very concern about the flood and she’s making sure that we can get enough needs in order to be prepared in case our soi gets flooded like the people on T.V. I have been discussing this with my mom and my elder brother as well. My mom has predicted that if Thailand was flooded, then why isn’t the north flooded?
Well, the north its landscape is higher than ours and Thailand is flooded because of the water that flows from the mountains of the North. But, it gets very suspicious since Thailand flooded and raining, why isn’t the North raining and flooded too? Yes, it’s because the Earth is changing and the Thai government has made the flood situation even worse. If the Chinese people have been putting out water to Thailand, and Thailand is flooded...Wouldn’t that make sense? Since the tide makes the river go up and down, letting Thailand being flooded and China is still putting out water, isn’t that kind of obvious to you? My mom predicted that the Thai government should have known something suspicious about this, and maybe they’re afraid to speak out against China, since there an economist country. Their also pretending to help out but, they’re the ones who are maybe behind it. Now, I’m not putting all the blame on China, this is a prediction.
As an individual or community member, I would help if my soi wasn’t flooded and save those people who are in the flooded areas. Make the situation better, not worser. If I stop and listen to my moral compass it would say “Stop the flood, I want school back, and save Thailand before it turns out to be a sea in 50 years”. I would expect the government to turn those thoughts into action, I cannot believe the Thai government has actually made the situation worser and I would expect them to be very serious about it. They also should apply more critical thinking on how to make it better and they should not laws like if someone is above 60, they may be release from jail if they become good that is not going to help save the flood, that’s just rising the criminal percentage or whatever they call as a criminal list.
