VolunteerEngineers: The Heart of Today's Effort

VolunteerEngineers: The Heart of Today's Effort

Provided by Nation.

Following the earthquake that caused widespread concern throughout Bangkok, Governor Chadchart swiftly initiated two urgent missions, personally overseeing operations from the early morning.

 

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA), in collaboration with the Engineering Institute of Thailand (EIT), has deployed nearly 130 volunteer engineers to inspect buildings across Bangkok, aiming to reassure residents that "your buildings are still safe.”

Over 700 buildings reporting cracks via #TraffyFondue are undergoing urgent inspection, prioritised by risk level. Governor Chadchart has emphasised, "There is no such thing as delay, no such thing as stopping."
  

In a time when the ground trembles... what remains steadfast is the power of those who work.
