Taiwan residents prepare for Typhoon Haikui

Residents in southeastern Taiwan batten down the hatches as Typhoon Haikui bears down on the island nation.

Around 2,800 people have been evacuated from seven cities in areas expected to be worst hit as authorities warn of strong winds, heavy rains and large waves.

"I almost forgot what it's like to be in a typhoon" says Huang Jun-Tong, a restaurant owner in Taitung County.
