Heavy monsoon rains have been drenching Southeast Asia since mid-July, causing mudslides and widespread flooding. The deluge has now reached Bangkok, with rising water and associated problems affecting most of the city's 10 million residents. Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra said that parts of the capital could be inundated by up to 1.5 meters of water and remain flooded for up to a month. Around Bangkok, the second-largest airport has closed, food prices are soaring, clean water is becoming scarce, and the country is declaring a holiday from Thursday until Monday to allow people to evacuate. The Chao Phraya river is predicted to overflow its banks in the city sometime today, and authorities say that if the protective dikes fail to hold the water, all parts of Bangkok will be vulnerable to the floodwater.% \* H4 }! {' f: |( k
强烈季风雨从7月中旬席卷东南亚,造成了泥石流和大面积的洪水。洪水现已抵达曼谷,持续上涨的水位和相关的问题影响了城市里的千万居民。泰国总理英拉说首都部分地区会被1.5米的水淹没,且会持续个把月时间。在曼谷四周,第2大的机场已经关闭。粮价上涨,清洁用水稀缺。国家已经宣布从周四到下周一放假五天,让民众撤离。湄南河预计今天(10月26日)某个时刻将溢出岸边。当局说如果防洪堤未能阻隔洪水,曼谷所有地区将不敌洪水。
