TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwan evacuated more than 3,000 people on Tuesday, issuing a land warning for the arrival of Typhoon Fung-wong, which is expected to dump large volumes of rain on its mountainous east coast, recently lashed by another typhoon.
The weakening Fung-wong is forecast to hit land on Wednesday on the island's southwestern coast around the major port of Kaohsiung, after it killed 18 people while powering through the Philippines as a much stronger system.
