How well was Taiwan prepared for the earthquake? | DW News

Authorities in Taiwan say dozens of people are still missing or stranded following the strongest earthquake to hit the island in more than 25 years. At least nine people were killed and one thousand injured when the quake struck during rush hour on Wednesday morning. Emergency crews are now working to clear roads and secure damaged buildings.
