The Thai DDPM issued a multi-day alert (Aug 3–7) for six southern provinces (Ranong, Phang Nga, Phuket, Krabi, Trang, Satun) due to monsoon strengthening, heavy rain, and rough seas. Authorities activated emergency protocols: stationed response teams, closed tourist sites at risk, prohibited coastal water access, and prepared shelters. SMEs in tourism, hospitality, and maritime logistics should expect disruptions and may need contingency plans for the affected period.
