Thailand stepped up relief efforts as severe flooding spread disruption from Bangkok’s streets to airline schedules and auto production, widening the economic toll from days of torrential rain.
Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul’s cabinet is set to approve 2 billion baht ($59.5 million) in aid for flood victims Tuesday as authorities worked to drain inundated neighborhoods and deliver supplies to stranded residents.
The disruption is increasingly spilling into major industries. Thai Airways International canceled 22 domestic and international flights scheduled for Sept. 29-30, including services to Singapore, India and Europe, after flooding left it short of staff and disrupted transportation to Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport.
