On September 23, 2025, torrential rains from Typhoon Ragasa that hit Taiwan caused a barrier lake located at the upper reaches of the Matai'an Creek in Hualien, eastern Taiwan, to overflow.
Muddy water flowed downstream, causing massive landslides and mudslides in villages and towns in the lower reaches.
Roads and houses were covered in mud, transforming the once vibrant streets into a desolate, gray landscape.
Hoping for the swiftest possible recovery of the disaster-affected areas, employee volunteers from Tokyo Electron Taiwan helped disaster recovery efforts by clearing mud from roads and houses.
