On September 29, Facebook “Thon Thamrongnawasawat” or Asst. Prof. Dr. Thon Thamrongnawasawat Marine and Environmental Scholars and a lecturer at the Department of Marine Science, Faculty of Fisheries, Kasetsart University Has released a post revealing the reason why “Noru storm” dissipated quickly, causing Thailand to not suffer more. stated that “The cyclone was born in the sea. die in the mountains This is a short sentence But I think best describes the events that happened in Thailand. weaken quickly Make Thailand not more trouble than this. And where did Noru die? The answer is that the storm is exhausting on the “Annam” mountain range that is like a shield to protect Thailand.
Annam wasn’t even in Thailand. The mountain range is in Vietnam, Laos and its tip is in Cambodia, but the mountain range, 1,100 km long and 2,800 meters high, has been a natural defense that has protected Thailand many times. Annam stretches along the coast of Vietnam. Demarcation of the coast from the Mekong River deep inland whenever a typhoon or major storm hits Vietnam. Annam stopped the wind. causing the raging storm to reduce the wind to only depression. even if it rains but the wind is much lighter Some of the moisture in the air is trapped.
Annam is also a source of biodiversity. The evergreen forests continue to the major evergreen forests in Indochina. It is the habitat of “Sao La”, one of the world’s rarest antelopes. Found only in the northern Annam area. in Laos and Vietnam
Annam also supplies water to the Mekong. Make the people of Laos and Khmer happy and that’s the story that I want to tell to Peer Thon. To the fortress of Indochina, the mountain ranges that mean a lot to Thailand and will become even more important. when the world is warming As the extreme weather intensified, Annam continued to stand tall. And Thai people are so lucky that we settled behind Annam.”
