It hasn't really rained for about 2 weeks, so levels are receding, but expect many major factories to be out of action for at least another 6 months, or perhaps abandoned completely & rebuilt elsewhere.
Greetings from The Land of Smiles !

We manufacture part of the hard drive for Seagate in Bangkok (about 30000 pcs per month)and we have been down for more than a month. We will be lucky if we can get back in production by early next year. My nephew took a boat ride (yes a boat ride) to my house yesterday and sent me some pictures showing the receding water line - ouch. I rescheduled my next visit until late January. For me it is an inconvenience but for some it is a trajedy.
