Thai people, fight over the flood

This year’s flood is Thailand and Bangkok’s biggest situation. The flood affected almost everyone in Bangkok. For me, my house is fine. My family and I stay safe, but in front of our village, it flooded 5 centimeters. The village said that if the water is 20 centimeters tall, we have to stay there until the water decreases. My family’s business is fine too. The path to go there flooded about 15 centimeters, but because their cars are tall, they can travel there safely. I’m able to return to school on Monday if my house doesn’t flood because the water in front of my village increases daily about one to two centimeters. I do well with the personal motivation and self-discipline in terms of being a continuous online learner; my friends and I sometimes help each other because the homework came daily about two to three homework.

            I know that this affected everyone. Most of the crops got ruin by this flooding, including orchid, rice, corn, and etc. Because of this, the price of the food or the destroy materials increases with less supplies. Many people try to steal from other houses, and also try to find the most supplies to survive. Thailand has one method to help and support the citizens that have their house flooded, by the EM ball. This EM balls clean the water with about 10 square meters far and 50 meters or higher deep. Some citizens said that it won’t help, but some agree with the government’s solution. In my opinion, it will help if the representatives follow the instructions about the EM ball.

            As an individual or community member, the citizens like us that do not get affect or almost affect by flooding can help other people in many ways. We can help them by buying them water, food, important needs, and etc. We also can be the representatives that support them. If you are strong enough, be generous and kind, everyone will enjoy their life, and not worry about their flooded house.
