More reports are floating in from the South of Taiwan of serious loss of life and damage to property. The BBC reports 'Hundreds lost' in Taiwan typhoon due to severe typhoon induced mudslides. Despite the massive loss of life and damage to property, Digitimes reports the IT industry has remained largely unaffected by the typhoon. Digitimes reports:
Taiwan's electronics industries appear to have seen limited affects from Typhoon Morakot which brought heavy rains over the weekend and caused seriously flooding in many areas in the southern and eastern parts of the island.
Many companies have already reported via filings with the Taiwan Stock Exchanged that their operations and businesses have seen little or no impact from Morakot.
Typhoons always are always dangerous and this one seems to be particularly dangerous. Hi Tech Taipei mourns with all Taiwanese people and with the families and friends of those lost and missing. Lets hope survivors can be found.
Digitimes: Taiwan IT industry not affected by typhoon flooding
