The Typhoon That Hit Taiwan Is No Joke!
Today, a typhoon with winds reaching speeds of 90 kilometers per hour wreaked havoc on the island. Two people lost their lives, and a staggering 334 were injured! Yes, you read that right — over three hundred people ended up in hospitals or emergency services.
This natural fury caused power outages across many parts of the island, and classes were suspended in ten districts and cities. Just imagine how many people were left without electricity and schools! Local media report that the hardest hit was the densely populated western coast, home to many businesses and schools.
In the Junlin district in southwestern Taiwan, the wind knocked down tall trees and traffic signs, making the situation even worse. Taiwan is no stranger to typhoons, but this one showed just how ruthless nature can be.
The island is prepared for such disasters, but is it enough? Will the authorities manage to repair the damage and help the injured? Or will we once again watch people suffer from natural disasters that don’t ask for permission?
