Sa Kaeo remains inundated as Sang Wa Thienthong leads a team delivering water and food for a fifth consecutive day, reaching areas that ordinary vehicles cannot enter. On September 29, 2026, former Pheu Thai party‑list candidate Yanika Thienthong said some residents are still sheltering in their homes, awaiting drinking water, food and essential supplies because leaving the area is difficult. Water levels vary across locations, making route scouting and community access cautious. Sang Wa Thienthong, deputy leader of the Pheu Thai Party, reported using high‑clearance trucks to transport drinking water, food and essential supplies to interior spots and points unreachable by regular vehicles, coordinating with local officials to organize distribution points and spread aid widely. He noted that differing water levels create obstacles; some spots are so deep that road conditions and underwater hazards cannot be seen, preventing even high‑clearance trucks from passing every route, forcing the team to continually adjust paths according to changing ground conditions. He added that despite the dangers, the team must press on because people remain inside needing assistance. Going forward, the team will monitor the situation and survey deep‑alley communities and inaccessible routes, continuing to deliver water, food and essential supplies until the flood eases and normal travel returns.
