To cut through all the red tape that up the decision-making process, the government needs to streamline bureaucratic processes and legal apparatuses. According to a report by TDRI, unlike most countries, Thailand does not have a law governing the management of water resources and thus the management of water resources and flood is highly fragmented between many bodies. Currently, 30 different state organizations under seven different ministries apply more than 50 different laws to the multiple issues of water management.
