"Officials must work hard now because if the floods hit Bangkok it would be miserable as the capital and its suburbs are key economic areas," he told reporters.
So far, about 1,000 homes along the Chao Phraya river in Bangkok have been flooded, he said.
The authorities estimate that several million people have been affected, with homes submerged and farmland or cattle destroyed, mostly in central and eastern areas. Bangkok has so far avoided major flooding.
