Floods, droughts, an earthquake and freezing conditions in China caused direct economic losses of 23.76 billion yuan (US$3.28 billion) in the first quarter, the government said on Saturday (Apr 13).
The emergency management ministry cited damage from several cold spells, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake in the northwestern region of Xinjiang, landslides in Yunnan province in the southwest and flooding on the Yellow River.
