Typhoon Kaemi is playing havoc on the southern Chinese coast.
More than 640,000 people were evacuated from a region that was still recovering from an earlier storm that left some 600 people dead.
One of the unique ways the residents were warned - 6 million text messages were sent to cell phone users in the area. What a great idea!
Had it been America, people would be crying about privacy violation.
Levees break in China, too.
Some 20,000 villagers were threatened by a collapsed levee. Soldiers could not shore up the breach fast enough.
China has so many people. Such that, whenever something happens it happens to a lot of people.
Not only were so many people evacuated, 44,000 fishing boats were ordered to return to port.
Question: Why isn't this news more widespread in the US? But then, I wonder if the people in these southern Chinese villages knew what happened to New Orleans.
What do you think?
