Severe flooding across multiple regions has caused widespread damage to homes and property belonging to local residents. Recently, Mr. Prasert Chantararuangthong issued a directive instructing all Fix it Center community repair units in flood-affected areas to mobilize fully and assist citizens, adhering to a proactive approach to alleviate suffering and ensure no one is left behind during this crisis.

According to recent operational data, vocational volunteers have successfully reached and provided assistance to more than 10,700 people affected by the floods. Their deployment spans across 27 provinces, including Bangkok, which serves as a major urban zone where numerous residents faced severe disruptions from overflowing rivers and heavy cumulative rainfall.

The primary mission of the Fix it Center units involves deploying instructors and students from vocational colleges under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission (OVEC) directly into affected communities. Their work concentrates on repairing water-damaged home electrical appliances, vehicles, and essential livelihood tools, thereby helping households reduce financial burdens during the difficult post-flood recovery period.

Meanwhile, relevant government ministries and affiliated agencies continue to monitor conditions closely while coordinating with the vocational volunteer networks to continually assess community needs. This ensures that aid reaches those who require assistance in a prompt and thorough manner.
