Bangkok declared a disaster zone: all 50 districts flooded after nearly 300 mm of rain in two days

• Malaysia

  «Kuala Lumpur has activated its consular device in Bangkok, placing the security of its nationals before Thailand's flood assessment.»

  What each one tells

  opposition

  Australia

  «Canberra links the floods in Bangkok to the storm that hit New York and Boston the same weekend, seeing it as a sign of a global meteorological season out of the norm rather than an isolated Thai crisis.»

• Malaysia

  Consulate-centered

  «the narrative highlights the security and assistance of Malaysian nationals rather than the general situation of Bangkok's inhabitants.»

  What the account puts first

  Australia

  Global weather

  «the article links the Bangkok floods to the American storm of the same weekend, placing the Thai disaster in a global sequence rather than in its sole national context.»

  Capital-centered

  «the disaster declaration covers the entire Bangkok area even though not all its zones were flooded, with no equivalent detail on the also affected provinces.»

• Malaysia

  Reliance on the national agency

  «the two official notices rely on the same agency dispatch for the count of affected areas.»
