At least 35 people who were celebrating Songkran festival in Trang province of Thailand got killed by the sudden flash flood. The flash flood caused by irregular heavy rains in Trang province which is around 680 kilometres south of Bangkok, caught hundreds of people by surprise at popular Sai Rung waterfall, where Songkran celebrants were swimming and enjoying picnik. Trang provincial authorities have set up an emergency operations centre to facilitate the rescue activities and receive the bodies as they are recovered.
