BEIJING, July 6 (Reuters) – Nanning, capital of China’s southwestern Guangxi region, has ramped up its flood control response to the highest level as rivers and reservoirs swelled with the passage of Typhoon Maysak, according to Chinese state media.
Authorities in Nanning, a city of nearly 9 million people, have raised the flood control emergency response level to I from III due to “extremely heavy rain”, China Central Television (CCTV) reported.
