More Water Reservoirs Needed to sustain a Nation

Drought is over in Thailand 
but water is still in short supply
The Straits Times
CHAI NAT – Rain in upstream provinces has eased supply problems at the Chao Phraya Dam, whose water level has risen above the crisis threshold.

obiter dictum: 
A year or two ago, water was released from dams in anticipation of the rainy season.  Due to lack of additional  reservoirs, the water was 'sent out to sea." 
That season or the next, less 'than normal' rain was experienced.  

This year, to date, even less rain than last year.

Sakon Nakhon Watersport Football

Over the years of watching Sakon Nakhon Football I have noticed that the team performs best under wet conditions.
They really should rename the team to the Sakon Nakhon Ducks.

"... the struggling economy ..."


A weaker baht will help the country's exports and provide more of a boost to the struggling economy than a rate cut, one of the country's deputy prime ministers said on Friday.
