Water problems have been a little less inthe last 2 years but the year prior to that Patong anyway had very low levels of water available and rationing (cutting it off) for large parts of the day lead to water hoarding and everyones tanks filling at once when it was put back on !!!

Not only is there sometimes water supply issues there is also water pressure issues.. I know of some multi million villas that end up going dry for months of the year and having to buy water from supply trucks.. Not much use having a mega villa and not being able to flush the crapper !!! Many well thought out homes will have large underground storage tanks to avoid and get by from a dry spell..

Sinking a bore is often cheap (IMHO) and free's you from the local supply issues..
