thousands of evacuees took refuge in churches and temples in southern Taiwan on Monday, waiting for road repair that would allow return to their homes, some fear that could take months or years due to the state of the road damaged by massive landslide triggered by the worst typhoon to hit the island since 1959.
The official * from the August typhoon Morakot stands at 123.But Taiwan president Ma estimated that now it exceeds 500 people. More than 35,000 people in the disaster area have been rescued.But thousands more remains stranded in the mountains over a week later.
Honghuqi was evacuated from his village by a helicopter on Sunday. "When the incident happened there was no choice, all of our chickens and sheep were there,we didn't have time to think, and we didn't have any chance to go back and take care of them".
Qingfeimei,who had been in the shelter for two days just wanted to go home. "We still want to go home, we don't want to have them always give us food to eat and clothes to wear, we don't want that, as soon as the road is fixed we would go home and see if our house is still there or not".
In Alishang over 200 volunteers carried food baskets on their backs which they planed to deliver to fellow villagers still in the mountains. Foreign aid began to arrive in Taiwan on Monday after leaders apologiazed for initially refusing the offers. 6 countries including the United States have pledged aid including expert damage assessment and water filtration tools. Chinese donors have given over 18,000,000 dollars and a cargo ship loaded with aid is due to leave ShenZhen port on Monday for Taiwan. |
Hope is a good thing,maybe the best of things,and no good thing ever dies! |
