Thai Enquirer reports that Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul plans to pass a 250 billion Baht 'Mega Project' for 'Water Management' during the Cabinet meeting tomorrow. This project, which has been on the backburner since 2014, aims to address long-term flooding issues in the Central region and Bangkok. The initiative, known as the Chainat–Pa Sak–Gulf of Thailand flood diversion canal project, involves connecting Chai Nat and Pa Sak to the Gulf of Thailand for optimized water diversion and protection.
The project has received positive feasibility findings from the NESDC and will be partially funded in the 2027 fiscal budget. Despite the announcement, the situation remains critical in lower basin areas, with many areas still at risk of flooding or continued flooding.
