Thailand said the death toll from weeks of flooding across 36 provinces rose to 59, as Bangkok escaped major damage after bolstering the city's defenses. Floods have affected at least 3.2 million people and damaged 1.4 million acres of agricultural land. Heavy rain may cause flash floods and landslides in 15 southern provinces before the end of the month, the government said. [Source: Bloomberg]
