what was that? Everyone is shouting about something, but we in Pattaya don't know anything about it. Tell us what is going on with us, otherwise we are sitting here and enjoying life. Maybe something to be afraid of? :))))))))))

BANGKOK, 28 March. /ITAR-TASS/. Five southern provinces of Thailand have been declared a natural disaster area due to severe flooding. According to the local "Channel-3", 8 people died as a result of landslides. The authorities are conducting a rescue operation.
According to the Meteorological Department, the water level in some areas of the south exceeds two meters. In the provinces of Trang, Surat Thani, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Chumphon, roads have been washed out, railway communications have been suspended, and airports have been shut down. More than 300,000 people were affected by the floods, according to authorities. In total, residents of 34 districts were evacuated.
A difficult situation is also observed in the popular resorts of Thailand - the islands of Phuket and Koh Samui, due to incessant downpours and storms, ferry traffic has been suspended. Rescuers urge tourists to refrain from swimming and hiking in the mountains

For the travel agent Amir1, who makes money on tourists, 300,000 victims mean nothing.
If only the tourists would come!

Pattaya does not belong to the southern provinces. I have never heard of natural disasters on this coast.
There is absolutely nothing to do in Phuket in April - the season of rains and storms begins.
An acquaintance who is now in Phuket says that there are no heavy rains, no floods yet, but it is possible that there will be.
I have tickets for May, in the plans of Koh Samui and Krabi, I'm not going to cancel yet.
You can only decide for yourself, to advise in such situations is irresponsible, and listening to other people's advice is imprudent.

papa74 listen to the opinion of the "experienced". I don't talk about myself. As for tourists, my business in Thailand directly depends on my words and recommendations. He deceived one, lost 100 tourists. There is no point in cheating. I do not sit in Russia or Ukraine in an agency and do not catch random tourists. Reputation is my bread. So you are extremely wrong.

In general, I personally am more inclined to believe not the media, but eyewitnesses. And even better - to your own eyes :) There are enough webcams in Thailand, from which you can see the image in real time with your own eyes. Searched by google search.

for tourists. A week ago in Bangkok we were sitting in a cafe. A tropical downpour has begun. For 20 minutes the water in the cafe was knee-deep. At least half a million people suffered from this. After all, things, phones, etc. got wet. After half an hour the rain stopped. In half an hour there was no trace of the water. But someone managed to film everything on camera. Submit a report on the floods in Bangkok. You look at this and be horrified. And there was nothing terrible. This is Thailand and here it's normal, even cool. Everyone laughed and sat in an exotic cafe knee-deep in water. Where else will you see this? No one thought to be afraid and run away.

I will clarify that there is no clinging to words. At least half a million people suffered because at that time the whole of Bangkok was sitting in cafes and each had the same thing. Can you imagine how many cafes there are in Bangkok? That's where everyone got hurt. Nightmare!!! Don't go here. Be afraid.

my wife in this downpour under an umbrella went to her daughter, who was playing in a hotel room and saw a man who was in shock and asked her what was happening? He was terrified and thought it was the end of the world. It was, by chance, not you papa74? :))))))))))))) Funny, is not it.

"Rescuers urge tourists to refrain from swimming and hiking in the mountains. Vitaly Anopov, press attaché of the Russian Embassy in Thailand, told our radio station."
Amir1 on TurPravda is cool!
This is not Komsomolskaya Pravda or the embassy for you - they must be lying?
Or who?

do not lie, but earn money by sucking sensation from the finger. It's like last year's war. I was there and saw everything. You look at TV and you're horrified. I was driving along Second Road and saw how one Thai on a motorbike crashed. It's covered in blood. And then there is the man with the camera. In the evening I watch and die of laughter: the carnage passes to Pattaya from Bangkok. And they show this bloodied man who just fell off a motorbike. And you look and believe. Really, don't go here. There are already too many people here without you, especially this year.

Everyone is nervous, of course, no one wants to sit in a hotel all day long when it's raining outside!
But you still have to go, why now, maybe the weather will calm down and the sun will come out! They are afraid of wolves - do not go into the forest! This is Thailand, I really want to go there!!! We'll follow the trail. week no matter what!

Yes, I do not want to go there ... and there are no plans.
But such a "barker" as Amir1 wants to sell excursions to everyone (using the TurPravda resource).

My "Thais" in Phuket say that the local forecast promises better weather by Friday.
My Samuis say that the airport is closed.
Phuket, Samui, Pattaya agree that there is no disaster, the weather is bad, but the journalists have blown everything up, as always. As with the "war" last year.
Bangkok residents complain about dog cold 22 degrees and dry weather.
