The cabinet is considering a 165bn baht long-term flood-management project (Chainat–Pasak–Gulf of Thailand), which has passed EIA and would run about 8 years, starting in FY2027 with budget set aside. Officials say part of the funding may be foreign loans, so timing depends on Finance Ministry negotiations. Estimated flood damage avoided is 17bn baht a year. For a Thai SME, this is a long-horizon infrastructure item: check whether your premises or supply routes sit in the Chao Phraya floodplain (Ayutthaya, Ang Thong, Bangkok flood zones), and watch the current northern water releases and PAD flood warnings this week.
