Best Answer

The primary causes of flooding in Southeast Asia are the monsoon rains which come in the later months of the year and the rising sea levels the world over.

The effects are what you would expect from flooding anywhere: massive destruction of property, contamination of drinking water, death by drowning, isolation of communities, prevention of a stable economy, etc.
