Bangkok Governor Chadchart says flood compensation will follow Department of Disaster Prevention (DDPM) criteria, mainly for home repairs. Bangkok will pay rent on an actual-cost basis, not per head, with documents submitted online. The city says its budget is limited, so it must request funds and get council approval, and payouts may be slow. The 9,000-baht government payment is separate. For a Bangkok SME, this means keeping records of flood damage (photos, receipts, repair quotes) now, and not counting on city money soon. Riverside east-bank communities face further water and possible wall reinforcement, so plan for access and stock disruption.
