The Bhumjaithai Party announced that flood victims currently receive 9,000 baht per household under the rainy season relief scheme, with an additional 2,000,000 baht for deaths from landslides or floods. The party’s National Disaster Insurance scheme, promising an immediate 100,000 baht payout, will take effect on October 1 and does not apply to the ongoing floods. The system covers three types of natural disasters: flood, storm and earthquake. Residential properties are insured up to 100,000 baht per building per incident, with no limit on the number of claims. For flood damage, an initial 10,000 baht is paid, followed by further payment based on actual loss, up to the 100,000 baht maximum. For storm and earthquake damage, the initial payment is 5,000 baht, with the remainder paid according to actual loss, also capped at 100,000 baht. Deaths resulting from covered disasters receive 2,000,000 baht. The cabinet has already approved the National Disaster Insurance fund, which will become effective from October 1. The party advises the public to verify their rights and criteria with local agencies to ensure they receive correct and full assistance.
