Typhoon Morakot

Typhoon Morakot has caused huge damage in Taiwan. Morakot caused landslides, severe floods, blew down trees and billboards, stripped roofs from buildings, and severe mudslides in Shiao-Lin Village (小林, a 1300 residents mountain village in Jiaxian, Kaohsiung) and roads toward Namaxia, Kaohsiung. The rainfall in Pingtung County exceeded 2,500 millimetres (98 in) which broke all rainfall records of any single place in Taiwan caused by a single typhoon. Many people are dead and hundreds are missing.

I don't know what to say. Just pray and hope that God can bless Taiwan and Taiwanese.
