When ever the Thai government has a problem, they setup a committee.  This is the Land of Committees.   Then usually he committee and its recommendations are allowed to fade into the sunset with little to no action taken by the government.  

But I'm sure hope the government understands the flooding has installed a fear of flooding into the minds of many people...even a heavy rain can now spook some people...people will not forget easily in this case.  And more companies will say bye-bye to Thailand this year if they are not assured Thailand is implementing serious water/flood control management. I sure hope the government is up to the challenge but at this point even with them tossing around huge baht amounts for water/flood management projects, I'm not close to being convinced the government is really serious...maybe they are still waiting for the committee to fix the problem.
