The Taitung County government also made sure the villagers in Taimaili and Dawu townships were evacuated. The strong flow broke the embankment along the rivers, and the South Taimaili Bridge was shut down to prevent further damages to the area which was battered by Typhoon Morakot last year.

The banks of Jialan Villagee in Taitung County were under floodwater.

It was just like what happened when Typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan last year.

Worried about the safety, Jialan villagers quickly packed their stuff and evacuated.

Although flood came surprisingly, villagers move quickly to find shelters.

The temporary riverbanks that were damaged and repaired after the Typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan last year are again ruined.

The Taitung County government asked the villagers to prepare for immediate evacuation.

Because of the heavy rain of the typhoon, the Dazhukao River of Dawu township is also flooded.

Since the typhoon caused the flooding of Taimali River, the South Taimali bridge has to close down, which marks the disruption of the South-link highway.
