Pursat Province: On Thursday morning, the 1st day of the 1st month of the 2nd month of the 2570th year of the Buddhist Era, corresponding to July 30, 2026, Mr. Kith Phal, Deputy Director of the Pursat Provincial Department of Water Resources and Meteorology, accompanied Mr. Khoy Rida, Governor of the Pursat Provincial Governor’s Committee, along with local authorities and dam guards, to inspect the water situation along the river after Pursat province received the 13th storm, named Dolphin, which received continuous rain and caused the upper part of the river to increase in water level.
As a precautionary measure, the provincial governor has continued to divert water to water-scarce areas far from water sources in various communes of Bagan district. But because the water at the Damnak Ampil dam has overflowed the floodgates, he personally ordered the technical department to open the floodgates to some lower parts to help Kandieng district and Pursat city.
But the high priority is for the communes of Bagan district to continue to push the water to its destination. Overall, the provincial governor continues to pay attention to water shortage interventions and continue to allocate water according to the following goals of cities and districts that are most at risk.
Finally, the Department of Water Resources would like to advise all farmers to use water wisely, save money, and share it fairly and transparently between farmers.
