FROC: More sluice gates need to be opened
The Public Relations Unit of the Flood Relief Operations Center (FROC) said that there is the necessity to open a lot more sluice gates such as Phraya Surane sluice gate in Khlong Sam Wa, resulting in a greater amount of water flowing into many districts of Bangkok. This will cause the flood water in communities situated along the canal to be 10-50 cm higher.
As for Prem Prachakon Canal, which already sees flood water behind its banks, it also has to bear the constant and rapid rise of water flows from Rangsit Canal. Therefore, the residents in the communities along the canal including Sai Mai, Khan Na Yao, Saphan Soong, Bueng Kum, Suan Luang, Bang Kapi, Don Mueang, Lak Si, Chatuchak and Bang Sue districts have to carefully watch out and be prepared for an announcement on relocation of belongings to higher grounds.

Water begins receding in Ayutthaya, normalcy to return in a month
The flood level within Ayutthaya province is on the decline, prompting authorities to begin draining water out of the old city. The overall situation is expected to return to normal within one month’s time.
Improvements have been reported in the flood situation within Ayutthaya with decreases in flood levels of between 10-50 centimeters in Tha Ruea, Nakhon Luang, Bang Pahan, Ban Phraek and Maha Rat districts and between 1-5 centimeters in Bang Ban, Phak Hai, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Bang Pa-in and Bang Sai.
Upon the declining water levels in the Chao Phraya and the Pa Sak Rivers, Ayutthaya Mayor Somsong Sappakosonlakul has instructed related officials to hastily siphon the floodwater out of the ancient city area of Ko Mueang. Ruptures on the flood barrier along Mahachai Canal have been blocked while nine large water pumping machines have been installed with a total capacity to discharge up to 1,000 cubic meters of water into the river per hour.
It is expected that roads will be reopened to traffic within the next ten days and normalcy will be restored in Ayutthaya within one month. Even though five industrial estates are still submerged, the authorities are waiting for the water to recede further before carrying out a recovery mission.

Boats found in Energy Ministry are solely for public donation
Energy Ministry's spokesperson claimed the boats found in the ministry would be distributed to the people, however, the steel boats needed to be returned to the donors to save users from electrical shock.
According to Mr Patchara Naripthaphan, the Energy Ministry's spokesperson, the boats in the Ministry of Energy belong to the ministry and other organizations under the ministry. They are being managed and distributed by the officials to ensure the efficient donation system. So far, more than 1,000 boats have been donated to the flood victims in 7 provinces and other 333 boats have been donated though the Flood Relief Operation Center (FROC).
He added that the ministry's name sign attached on the side of the boats are for making sure that the donated boats would be used for the community's benefits and not for personal purpose since they were large boats. Nevertheless, the ministry has to return the steel boats to the donors since iron is the conductor which might pose risk of electrical shock to the users.
Mr Patchara confirmed that the donation items sent to the ministry would not be destroyed like the ones in the FROC, Don Muang Airport. He claims that the Energy Ministry only brings the donation items to the flood victims, but it does not act as a receiver. Moreover, today more than 100 boats will be distributed, leaving about 10 boats which the nearby communities which the officials can use in cases of floods.
