Bangkok's streets remain flooded.<br/> And it's only going to get worse.<br/> Flood waters are steadily encroaching on the city center, which could further impact the country's deflating economy.<br/> On Saturday, Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra said in a radio interview that she would reverse the tides as soon possible.<br/> However, residents say they are frustrated by the worsening conditions.<br/> Concerns over flooding have emptied Chatuchak, the country's biggest market.<br/> (SOUNDBITE) (Thai) WANCHAI SRICHOMPOO, SHOP OWNER IN CHATUCHAK WEEKEND MARKET<br/> "No more than 50 shops are open today. Usually there are a lot of customers at this time but now it's empty. All the shop owners and merchants are very stressed over the drop in sales compared to normal days."<br/> For now, emergency workers are hoping a 6,000-strong sandbag wall along the outer rim of Bangkok will stop waters from reaching the inner city.<br/> The move is slated to give the government a much-needed victory against the deluge.<br/> Jessica Gray, Reuters
