Torrential rains from a passing typhoon shut down a swathe of southern Taiwan on Friday (June 26), leaving more than five million people off work or school and flooding severing a section of a main rail line.Although Typhoon Mekkhala, which is now over southern Japan's Ryukyu Islands, did not make direct landfall in Taiwan, its outer bands have brought heavy rain to parts of the island, especially in Kaohsiung, Tainan and Pingtung in the south.
