I need to do more research on this but the Threadline which is the topic for this thread makes me wonder HOW China could evactuate one million people?
Snippets.....More than 1 million people fled their homes along China's southeast coast as Typhoon Haitang slammed into the mainland yesterday after hammering Taiwan, killing four people.
At 5:10 pm, the typhoon hit the coastal Chinese town of Huangqi in Fujian Province, with winds of 126-kilometres-per-hour reported in Lianjiang in Fujian.
More than 1 million people were evacuated from their homes in Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, China Central Television reported.
