Mr Somchai Wuththimonwittaya, president of Lowo tambon administration organization, who made an inspection trip to three flooded villages in Sangkhla district reported that water level averaged one metre, making it impossible for many residents to leave their houses while schools were also closed. Officials set off in boats to remove debris washed by strong currents and got stuck on bamboo poles which serve as supporting platform for the famous Uttamanusorn wooden bridge or Saphan Mon.
