2 Malaysians injured as Typhoon Champi lashes Taiwan
The pair are receiving consular assistance from the Malaysian Friendship and Trade Centre.
Two Malaysians in Taiwan are receiving treatment for minor injuries after Typhoon Champi made landfall, according to the Malaysian Friendship and Trade Centre in Taipei City. The typhoon, which left at least one dead and hundreds injured, has resulted in power cuts and fallen trees across the island nation. The centre continues to monitor the situation closely and provide consular assistance to Malaysians affected by the typhoon.
It advises Malaysians living in or visiting Taiwan to exercise caution, particularly avoiding beaches and mountainous areas due to the typhoon's strong gusts of around 126km per hour near its centre. The typhoon has also led to nearly 1,000 flight cancellations in Taiwan, with 242 flights cancelled today alone.
