As the storm finally moves away from Korea, troops are being sent to help find survivors and tackle the country's worst damage in history.  As the typhoon swept through the territory, railway bridges were washed away  Roads were also destroyed in the deluge  In the cities most people were able to wade through the floods to safety  Other more vulnerable people needed a helping hand  Now the massive clean-up is underway  Providing fresh drinking water is an urgent need  But even more pressing is the task of trying to recover those still missing | | See also:  02 Sep 02 | Asia-Pacific 18 Aug 02 | Asia-Pacific 14 Jul 02 | Asia-Pacific 12 Jul 02 | Asia-Pacific 05 Jul 02 | Asia-Pacific 04 Jul 02 | Asia-Pacific 18 Sep 00 | Science/Nature Internet links: The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites Top Asia-Pacific stories now: Links to more Asia-Pacific stories are at the foot of the page. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
