Business giants fear chaos after Typhoon wreckage

South Korean business giants were bracing themselves for massive disruption to their exports today after the country’s worst typhoon on record wrecked its main port and left 115 people dead or missing.

At least 87 people were killed and 28 others were missing, feared dead, from Typhoon Maemi, which slammed into South Korea’s biggest port, Busan, on Friday with such intensity that it tossed shipping containers into the air and toppled gigantic cranes.
