TAIPEI, Taiwan -- The Kaohsiung City Government finally started reconstruction efforts after the recent gas explosions, having been delayed by the torrential rain of the past two days.

Yesterday morning, the rain finally abated in Kaohsiung and some citizens were happy to see the sun during their “torrential rain break.” Others were less happy: People living near the explosion sites have been waiting on the substantial amount of reconstruction work that has yet to see any significant progress. Amid the noise coming from the heavy construction work, these neighborhoods are still trying to recover from the disaster.

The government is working with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC,台積電) to pave roads and reconstruct houses from Kaixuan 3rd Rd to Yixin 1st Rd. Many of the residents there say they want construction work to focus on the most heavily populated areas, despite the noise caused by the equipment. In addition, some stores have reopened using their back doors as their main entrance due to the damage to the road in front of their shops. According to Chan Chien-teng (詹錢登), a professor of the Department of Hydraulic and Ocean Engineering at National Cheng Kung University, the average rainfall on Aug. 12-13 was above 80 millimeters per hour. He said that even if the gas explosions had not taken place, the flooding would still have occurred.

If the rain picks back up and forces the government to drain water via pumping machines, the soil that forms the foundation for many buildings may also be washed away. This may lead to structural instability, Chan said. As a result, the professor suggested that the government should move victims to a safer place first and reconstruct after the flooding stops. This, in addition to authorities still investigating the explosions and residents accidentally tampering with relevant evidence.

台北，台灣 - 高雄市政府終於開始了重建工作，最近瓦斯爆炸事故後，被延遲了，這兩天的暴雨。

昨天上午，雨終於減弱在高雄，有些市民很高興看到他們在太陽其他人不快樂“滂沱雨歇。”：人們居住在爆炸地點一直在等待的，目前尚未有相當數量的災後重建工作看到任何顯著進展。在一片從繁重的施工噪聲的到來，這些地區仍試圖從災難中恢復過來。

政府正與台灣半導體製造公司（TSMC，台積電）鋪平道路，重建從凱旋三路房屋，一心一路。很多居民說，他們希望建設工作將重點放在人口最多的地區，儘管造成設備的噪音。此外，一些商店已經用他們的後門作為自己的主要入口重新開放，由於在店前的道路造成的損害。根據陳簡騰（詹錢登），水利及海洋工程學系教授成大，年平均降雨量在八月12日至13日為上述每小時80毫米。他說，即使瓦斯爆炸事故沒有發生，洪水仍然時有發生。

若雨拾取備份並迫使政府通過泵送機排出的水，其形成為許多建築物的地基的土也被沖走。這可能會導致結構不穩定，成龍說。其結果是，該教授建議，政府應該將受害人到一個安全的地方第一和洪水停止後重建。這，除了當局仍在調查爆炸和居民意外篡改有關證據。
