Tsunami 2022 Page #4

America lost 25 percent of its

population and resources.

"If Europe and Russia are buried under snow,"

the losses would reach up to 50 percent.

What if the entire Asian continent

"experiences volcanoes, earthquakes

and the Tsunami?"

I expect half of the Asian population to die.

Are you saying that our entire

civilization could be wiped out?

I believe that an earthquake

higher than 9 on the Richter scale

would cause a Tsunami

to sweep the Pacific Ocean

across the Gulf of Thailand.

Anything can happen as a result.

But my greatest fear is...

that many of our dams might collapse.

Mr. Prime Minister

You should order mass evacuations

in the Southern

and Central regions immediately.

But you've ordered evacuations

three times already.

"If it's inevitable, it must be done."

A fourth or fifth time is not a problem for me.

But you've faced immense

political pressure so far.

Let the chips fall where they may.

What's the use of a prime minister

if there's no one left to lead?

"Dr. Siam, how confident

are you of this event?"

"Over 50 percent, sir."

"I'm concerned that if

we announce a state of emergency,"

it may lead to utter chaos.

I know there will be some citizens

who won't believe this disaster will occur.

"But the ones who do, will leave the cities."

I also fear the worst scenario

could result in huge fatalities.

"You cannot make a wrong decision this time, sir."

I'm not a god.

"Dr. Siam, return to the National

Disaster Centre immediately"

and update me with periodic reports.

We can handle up to 6 meters high.

"But if the waves are higher, I'm not too sure."

"Right now, our world is in a crisis."

And this ship's duty is to

monitor the deep sea.

"If we fail to perform our

duties in this situation,"

I wouldn't know why I'm on this ship.

"In the midst of this severe natural disaster,"

the government has received

reports from various agencies

that many regions worldwide

are impacted by a natural crisis;

one the likes that mankind

has never seen before.

Many relevant agencies have reported

a mere 25 percent chance

of this potential catastrophe happening.

"But in order to avoid carelessness,"

"I, on behalf of the government council,"

I declare an extended Songkran

holiday for 7 consecutive days

commencing from tomorrow onwards.

Let's once again welcome

Dr. Siam to lead our nation.

Thank you kindly.

Let's perform our duties with no room for error.

A single mistake may have

devastating consequences.

How can you lead our country

with such nonsense?

The world will flood and

a Tsunami will hit Bangkok?

Impossible! You're insane.

You've lost your mind.

You may have influence in your political party.

You might enjoy unrivalled

wealth and prestige.

But you'll never overpower

Mother Nature itself.

"This is madness, it's unheard of!"

You're ruining the government coalition.

The opposition will crush us beneath their feet.

Let me inform you

"the moment you step down

as prime minister,"

I'll sit in your place.

"Honorable Somchai,"

if you crave for it so much

"then take it, but don't get in my way."

Now the lives and safety of my people

are more valuable than my assumed position.

Sounds like you're under a lot of stress.

I must be.

"Even without seeing my face,

you can sense my mood."

"It's the coalition parties, isn't it?"

Haven't you already accepted the problem?

Don't worry too much about that nonsense.

I'm actually calling about

this year's Songkran festival.

I want you to take the kids to

Chiang Mai for Songkran

and I'll follow shortly.

"You said that before,

but you never show up."

But you're serving the people now.

I shouldn't get upset.

I'm sorry but this time

I promise to keep my word.

I really want you to take

the kids to Chiang Mai.

This year's festival is very grand.

He dares to brag at me.

"He won't survive this time,

I'll remove him from my path."

"You've always been number one, father."

You have everything; money and power.

Just get rid of anyone in your way.

It should have been over long ago.

"This time, your wish will come true."

Don't you want to be

the Prime Minister's son?

Whatever will be will be.

I'm willing to lose everything

in exchange for the lives of my people.

"If Dr. Siam's predictions don't come true,"

then it's out of my control.

"Even if it's the end of my political career,"

it's more than worthwhile.

All we can do now

is pray to the heavens above.

May Thailand's guardian angel

protect the Thai people

from this natural disaster.

Look at them Rawai.

Look at how disgusting they are.

Why won't the police arrest them?

You shouldn't look.

Watch what will happen.

My blood is boiling.

China faced its worst

natural disaster in 100 years.

Their largest dam was even destroyed.

London is entirely buried

beneath a snowstorm.

"France, Spain and Italy got the worst of it."

Their people were frozen alive.

The reason I've decided to be here

is to work together with each of you.

I'm sorry that I'm unable to grant your

agencies a holiday on this Songkran festival.

"Additionally, I need all of you"

to be 100 percent prepared.

I believe that very soon

each of you will understand my decision.

Hello, Mr. Prime Minister.

I'm with the airborne disaster relief unit.

We're ready to respond to any crisis.

Your predictions had better prove accurate.

You can begin the countdown.

All of us must abandon this island.

"We must leave our homes immediately,

it isn't safe here."

Today was marked by obscenity.

They've invoked our ancestors' wrath.

The guardian spirits will wipe away

this evil scourge.

"You can follow me if you want, it's up to you."

"If you won't leave, then sleep in your house."

"But let me warn you,

you'll never wake up."

"The prime minister won't last,

he's a madman."

I've gathered you here to inform you

that I'll pressure parliament to

relieve Traipop of his duties.

Because he has no more virtue.

He completely destroyed

our country's economy.

He ordered 3 evacuations

because of a Tsunami warning.

He's too easily swayed by Dr. Siam.

Dr. Siam? I've seen him try to

campaign for senator.

But he always flops.

"The prime minister backs him up, I know."

"To make matters worse,

this Songkran is a 7 day holiday."

People are flowing out of Bangkok.

The city will be deserted.

"Millions are headed north,

south, and northeast."

What's going on here?

I suggest we replace

the prime minister with Somchat.

We have enough votes.

Yes, He's perfect.

What are we doing today?

Collecting garbage.

Where does the garbage come from?

It's man-made.

What garbage is the most

dangerous to our planet?

Chemicals and pesticides.

Very good.

The principal has ordered us

to return with the kids immediately.

What happened?

This program is meant to last until tomorrow.

- What's going on?

-There's an earthquake and possible Tsunami.

"This is serious, put the kids on the bus."
