How does China prepare?
China has developed extensive disaster preparedness systems, especially for typhoons affecting its vulnerable coast. This includes early warning systems, weather forecasting, and large-scale evacuation plans, as demonstrated by the relocation of over a million people for Typhoon Dolphin. These measures aim to minimise loss of life and property damage from severe weather events.
