FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

Droughts and floods pose the greatest threat to Thailand, influencing the entire country in with varying degrees of risk. The entire country is severely impacted by floods when weighted by mortality and GDP whereas droughts only rank in the moderate to lower deciles. Cyclones also pose a minor risk to the northern portions of the country. The Multi-hazard Disaster Risk maps indicate that Thailand is significantly affected by hydrological and drought events, particularly in the central, eastern, and southern regions
