  • According to reports, Luang Namtha Province is experiencing its most widespread flooding since 2008. Luang Namtha Airport was temporarily closed due to flooding, and landslides have blocked roads, causing severe disruptions to transportation and daily life.
  • According to the Mekong River Commission, the Mekong River is expected to exceed the danger level in Luang Prabang Province on September 12th and in the capital, Vientiane, on September 14th, raising the risk of flooding. Please stay informed through related reports, avoid approaching rivers, and take precautions to avoid being caught in disasters or accidents.
  • In case the floods cause interruptions to water and electricity supplies, prepare flashlights, mobile batteries, and stock up on drinking water and food. Also, inform family and others of emergency contact information, confirm evacuation sites in advance, and evacuate to a safe location if necessary.
