The National Disaster Management Agency recorded 1,704 disasters between January and September 2016, resulting in 411 deaths and missing persons. Floods were the most frequent disaster and caused the most fatalities. Floods accounted for 31.1 percent of the deaths and missing persons.

In addition to casualties, floods also caused damage to homes and various facilities. Between January and September 2016, floods resulted in thousands of damaged homes, hundreds of thousands of flooded homes, and hundreds of damaged public facilities.

High rainfall and decreasing water absorption areas are suspected to be the cause of the high number of flood disasters and casualties. Evictions and relocation from flood-prone areas have been implemented in several regions to mitigate this disaster.
