An exploration of typhoons and salty rains invading Taiwan and their response during the Dao-Han period of the Qing dynasty
During the Dao-Han period of the Qing Dynasty,typhoons and salty rains were frequent in Taiwan,showing the suddenness and serious destructive nature of disasters,resulting in the collapse of houses,shriveling of crops,damage to land,injuries and deaths,the sinking of merchant ships,and e-ven the destruction of public facilities.In the face of disasters,the central government adhered to the"inter-governmental cooperation"mechanism for disaster relief,in which local officials at all levels in-dependently surveyed the disaster situation and cooperated with each other,giving full play to the gov-ernance strengths and values of the grass-roots government.In terms of material mobilization,under the coordination of the central government,local governments in disaster-stricken areas had been able to allocate materials close to each other,thus enhancing the efficiency and level of disaster relief.In terms of specific measures,local governments realized the cooperation between local governments and the private sector in disaster relief by mobilizing private donations and other measures.Through the ef-fective governance of the central government during this period,Taiwan achieved good relief results.This idea of inter-governmental cooperation in disaster relief also provided valuable experience for the future relief model of typhoon salty rain disasters in Taiwan and even other regions.
