Three hikers were killed by falling rocks at the famed Dekalun Trail in Taroko National Park in Hualien and a truck driver died when his vehicle was crushed by rocks near a tunnel in Hualien. In Taroko park more than 40 people, mostly tourists, were hurt and hundreds were evacuated.

At least 50 people in Hualien, Yilan, Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung and Taoyuan were hurt after they were either hit by fallen objects or fell during the earthquake.

The semiconductor industry on the island has been affected, with industry giant Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) evacuating factory areas and partially shutting down for preventive measures, according to the Hsinchu Science Park Administration, about 240km from Hualien.

I was wondering if they would accept help from the Chin’s. Or in this case, not. Accepting help from china is going to come with strings.

Wise decision. The world's civilized nations should be offering whatever assistance that officials need. Tell the Butchers of Beijing to go fornicate themselves.
