Online news:

Tap water services in some sections of Sukhumvit Road will be cut or disrupted from late Tuesday night until 5am on Wednesday, the Metropolitan Waterworks Authority has announced.

The MWA said it will carry out the maintenance and repair of a main water pipe on Sukhumvit Soi 21 (Asoke) between 10pm and 5am tomorrow. As a result, tap water may run slowly or completely stop during the period in the following areas:

- Sukhumvit Road, sois on the odd-number side from railway near Soi 1 to Soi 39 (Soi Prompong)
- Sukhumvit Road, sois on the even-number side from the railway to Soi 26.

The MWA advised people in the areas to reserve tap water for use during its maintenance operations tonight. For further details or assistance, they can phone the agency€™s public service centre at 1125 around the clock.

I guess the short time girls will have to offer sponge baths with bottled water in place of showers over that time.


Probably most of the larger building and hotels have reserve water supplies, many have tanks on the roof for water pressure.
Also they can save on heating costs by storing some water in tanks on the roof, this seems to be the main heating and pressure system for many houses.

No shortage drinking water anywhere anyway.

Isn't this just a normal thing in Thailand ?

You are probably think of the electricity.
It's better these days, but it seemed to go out all the time in the past.
