The Democrat Party Wednesday called on the government to declare the state of emergency to allow officials to work with more efficiency to contain floods.
Democrat deputy spokesman Sakonthee Phatthiyakul said the flood situation was getting worse but the government was stubborn and would not heed advice of several sides.
Sakonthee said the government would not heed the advice of opposition leader Abhisit Vejjajiva to declare the state of emergency to integrate operations of all sides and increase efficiency.
The state of emergency would also allow the authorities to handle the masses more easily.
