The Finance Ministry's budget office says the Disaster Prevention Department asked for 10,500 million baht in extra mid-year funds for flood relief, to go to Cabinet on 20 October. Payments are said to continue without a break once approved. Households get 9,000 baht if flooded and damaged, and 5,000 baht if cut off for 7 days. Some recipients are being asked to repay, and Bangkok district offices are the checkpoint. If your business or staff were flood-hit, check eligibility now and keep documents ready for verification. Anyone who claimed without meeting the conditions may face repayment or prosecution.
