the past two decades.
Although people were aware of the danger, there was severe property damage. The strong
winds blew away thousands of house roofs and washed away a large number of facilities. The
streets were flooded because of the heavy rains. Over 5,000 big trees fell across the road. The
storm also destroyed all crops and fish farming. Rainstorms and landslides in mountainous
areas made life difficult for the locals. According to reports, at least 10,000 homes were in
trouble. Đà Nẵng and Quảng Nam severely suffered from this typhoon. There was no human
loss as the police evacuated locals to safe places before the storm swept through. However,
flooding after the storm caused the death of two people.
The typhoon had a huge impact; however, governmental officers and volunteers from different
parts of the country worked hard to improve local people's living conditions after the typhoon.
