If you are not aware, there is a typhoon going on in southern Asia.
On Tuesday, Megi carried sustained winds of about 104 mph off the coast of the Philippines in the South China Sea. With this being said the death toll has risen in this area. However you would be surprise that out of the 11 confirmed deaths that only 1 has been a drowning. The rest have been fallen trees or lightning related deaths.
A huge concern is that the typhoon could approach Hong Kong and mainland China in the next few days. Megi could bring heavy rain to already-drenched areas such as Hainan and Vietnam, where state media said at least 20 people have died from recent flooding.
What do you think the effect will be on the economy of these Asian countries? Or could the US be affected by this typhoon?
I dont think that the U.S will be afftected by these typhoons but i do believe that many of the familys from these asian countries may have to find a new place to live so they can get away from all the destruction that these typhoons are causing
ReplyDeleteNo, because "he's got the whole world in his hands."
ReplyDeletei do not believe that US will be affected by the typhoon in asia physically but maybe it could affect our economy if the philippines economy goes under.
ReplyDeleteI think it would be devastating as it would be on any economy. But I think if it were to be catastrophic America would do something to help out the Asian countries.
