It is a pity to read news about 100 lives were lost due to flood in northern Thailand this week. The villagers were warned but they did not listen. This is a major problem in Asian country. Innocent lives were lost due to people's ignorant about possible dangers;be it flood,disease,drugs etc. I still remember in the my country's worst flood in 1967 when my late father had to go and persuade the villagers to leave their houses.
Water is a paradox by itself! Too much,you get drowned. Too little, you die of thirst.

Water is the most expensive commodity if you don't have it. We only know its true value when our wells ( pipes) run dry...Btw,it happened to me a few times in Kuala Lumpur.
