"Observation and Reflection from a Typhoon"


Every student would like extra holiday, like me. That day was a summer holiday, but I must go back to school to my summer tutorials class. That week, the weather was so bad and a rain was falling from the sky a few days. The violent was a big powerful to break down our normal life, such as many downed trees in our roads and workers were too busy to remove a fallen trees. How long I can encounter the typhoon signal no. 10. In that time, I went to sleep until next morning I got the news has the typhoon signal no. 10. I was too late to achieve the news and I missed the good news in that moment. Anyway, I had an extra holiday was so happy.



  I watched the news, many passengers slept at the airport and waited the Typhoon Vicente left in Hong Kong. Many flights were cancelled and were delayed on Monday night.  It was a bad news to them because they went to Hong Kong travelling and they cannot move on time to go back their home. It was horribly during the Typhoon Vicente, a strong violent tear down scaffolding on a residential building, and it can hurt everyone in the dangerous building.



 Another the next hot news was the MTR Corporation was blamed for poor emergency management on Tuesday as a hundreds passengers were stayed in trains and MTR stations overnight. Some passengers got water by service personnel. The railway operator stopped commuter-loaded trains on the East Rail line, so many passengers stranded in train. They cannot do anything and just waited workers finished to resume train. I think the MTR Corporation cannot deal with this problem, so that it came under fire for the train and MTR service. The MTR Corporation should be given some food or provided coaches. The MTR Corporation only to say that passengers must calm down until the train was restoring power.  We can see that the MTR Corporation was so bad to handle problem.
