Phuket maybe, but Bangkok and Pattaya? They might need a few inflatable dams to limit saltwater ingress, and more pipelines, but desal is a solution of last resort. Transport-wise though, I think getting the southern railway work done is most critical, but Narathiwat is fairly isolated from Bangkok, so upgrading the airport isn’t a bad investment.
