Mexican media highlights Vietnam’s resilience in coping with Typhoon Yagi
VOV.VN - The Mexican media have given continuous updates about super Typhoon Yagi, which hit Vietnam on September 7, and also highlighted Vietnamese people’s resilience in the face of the strongest storm in the East Sea in more than three decades.
The World News section of Milenio, a major national newspaper in Mexico, on September 10 shared a video about employees striving to hold the doors of a hotel in an effort to prevent downpours and winds.
It also shared social media opinions which hailed the bravery of those hotel employees as well as Vietnamese people amid the adversity, considering such images as highly emotional and inspiring images.
With regard to the Vietnamese Government and people’s extraordinary response and rescue efforts, the Enfoque Noticias newspaper cited statistics as indicating that Vietnam mobilized all forces, including over 500,000 military personnel, for search, rescue, and evacuation of tens of thousands of people to safe places.
While the El Debate newspaper reported on the huge human and property losses caused by Yagi, TV channel FORO shared many clips about the devastation of the strongest typhoon in Vietnam in decades. It also compared this storm with Hurricane Otis that made landfall in Mexico in late 2023 and took a heavy toll along the western coast of this country.
El Economista, a business and economics newspaper, covered Yagi’s impacts on economic activities in Vietnam, especially in some export processing zones in the northern region. However, it also held that production - business activities and supply chains will recover soon.
