PM Anutin ordered faster compensation and damage surveys after flooding in Bangkok and central provinces, and cabinet ministers were told to stay home. Surveys will be done household by household and area by area as water recedes, so keep damage photos and records ready. For property and vehicles, the insurance commission will help coordinate with insurers; check your policy terms and file claims early. Provincial governors can now approve emergency budgets immediately in declared disaster zones. A central-region drainage project (Chai Nat–Pak Sak–Gulf of Thailand) is headed to cabinet this Tuesday.
