» Villagers in Chiang Rai are experiencing flooding that has so far affected over 9,000 families. Many people, particularly in Mae Sai district, are stranded in their homes awaiting help from rescue officers. Meanwhile, floods and landslides are also wreaking havoc in other northern provinces, not to mention the neighbouring countries of Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam.
