STORYLINE:

China's Ministry of Emergency Management (MEM) and three other government departments have sent task forces to Guangdong and Hainan to guide flood and typhoon prevention work as Typhoon Yagi is set to make landfall along the coasts of the two provinces.

The State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters held a meeting with seven departments on Thursday, including the Ministry of Water Resources and the China Meteorological Administration, examining the development of the typhoon and assessing the trends of disasters it may bring, such as floods.

According to the meeting, Typhoon Yagi is likely to be the strongest typhoon to hit China's southern coast since 2014, making flood and typhoon prevention work very challenging.

An MEM official has urged all relevant parties to declare an emergency state for typhoon prevention, and to strengthen multi-departmental consultation and assessment procedures.
