Deputy PM Ekniti led a field inspection in Ayutthaya province to coordinate proactive flood management along the Chao Phraya River. The government is implementing a "fishbone" water distribution strategy to divert water from both sides of the main river channel, protecting critical sites like temples and industrial parks. Military-grade flood barriers (1.9m high) and automated pump systems have been installed. All agencies must monitor water volume continuously, prepare evacuation routes and safe zones, and prioritize vulnerable populations—the focus is prevention before impact rather than reactive response.
