Luxury Homes Flooded, Cars Damaged in Thai Village

Natwat Israkorn reported that his luxury home in a Thai village was flooded waist‑deep, damaging about three cars worth over 10 million baht and affecting dozens of houses. He criticized the village juristic office for deflecting responsibility, arguing that flood control is an external issue and questioning why only one side of the village flooded after 17 years of living there. Natwat also dismissed remarks about his age, saying he still looks young and urging critics to avoid harsh judgment.

Natwat said the floodwaters have now receded only a little, leaving the area ankle‑deep and uninhabitable due to a stench of rotting water. He stressed that the damage is extensive, with luxury cars submerged and the ground floor of homes needing complete repair. He complained that the village juristic office’s response was dismissive, directing him to ask them instead of addressing his concerns, and noted that his taxes effectively go to the office. He argued that flood mitigation is an external problem, not a village matter, and that if the juristic office could handle it, there would be no need for a government. He pointed out the puzzling disparity where one side of the village is flooded while the opposite side remains dry after 17 years of residence, yet no one will explain why. Natwat also rebutted comments calling him “over‑the‑hill”, saying he still looks youthful, comparable to Mario or Mark Prin, and urged critics not to be overly harsh, observing that truth is scarce in today’s world.
