Bankok-ul este sub ape. La propriu.
Este cel mai mare dezastru natural care a afectat acest oraș din întreaga sa istorie.
Pagubele sunt imense.
Au murit peste 500 de oameni. Ziarele scriu că ar fi mult mai mulți.
În aceste condiții, orice import de la PAudio este incert, întrucât nu există posbilitatea de a se face expediții. Porturile și aeroporturile sunt impracticabile.
Chiar și dacă apele se vor retrage în următoarele două săptămâni, tot nu mai este timp pentru a primi ceva până înainte de sărbătorile de iarnă.
Vă postez mai jos cele mai noi informații .
Din fericire pentru noi și din nefericire pentru cei care urăsc firma Paudio, fabrica și linia de producție au scăpat neinundate.
The P Audio factory is still dry but the surrounding area continues to be completely flooded and we cannot receive or ship materials. In addition, our workers still cannot come to the factory because of high water.
We have made the following progress however and are excited about limiting the impact of the flooding. Although we feel there will be a minimum of two weeks of continued high water, please see the steps below that will help all of us once the water has receded.
1. Our sales team is able to receive and enter all orders so please continue to communicate directly with the sales associates and advise them of your needs.
2. We have a production planning team that has been able to enter the factory and are actively working on master plans for post flood production. This is good news as it will allow P Audio to get back into production very quickly and prioritize your needs.
3. We also have a part of our purchasing team in the factory. They are continuing to place purchase orders with suppliers outside of Thailand. We are able to ship from those suppliers into the port facilities in Thailand and all outsourced materials are safe, dry, and in port. Once the roads become “passable” we will bring all outsourced materials into the factory.
4. We are also lucky enough to have a small team in the warehouse managing our raw materials inventory and finished goods inventory. As soon as the water recedes we will be in a good position to ship all the finished goods that are available.
5. The machine shop and plating areas are dry and will have a small crew working later this week. This will allow us to complete orders with in-house materials where ever possible.
6. We have both finance and accounting working in one of our offices in downtown Bangkok so please feel free to communicate with us regarding your accounts.
We have not had any electrical interruptions so our servers are up and e mail communication is possible with all critical departments.
As a reminder, whenever you communicate with any P Audio departments please copy me, using both of my e mail addresses.

We appreciate your continued confidence in P Audio and will have additional updates very soon.
Thanks,
