Severe Flooding- Koh Samui, Thailand

[MadMullah]

just a lil heads up

due to torrential rain alot of the flights there have been cancelled

flash flooding has destroyed a fair few roads and disrupted communications.

The roads on Samui weren't great to start with.

Yeah its also effecting Phuket and other places nearby...http://phuketwan.com/tourism/phukets-navy-rescue-similans-stranded-13880/

I was there only just over a week ago so quite pleased I missed it all.

Sounds like it has got a lot worse in the Krabi province with a Dam bursting and hundreds missing! http://phuketwan.com/tourism/krabi-dam-bursts-trig...

Some folk have an interesting slant on priorities.

By 'it' I of course meant their island. Not for my holiday but for themselves. I'm sure of course you appreciate that and hadn't jumped to conclusions.

This landslide will take some shifting!







What will they do? Break the rock up?

The infrastructure/drainage on Samui seems quite poor anyway - even with a heavy shower the roads would flood.
