The new promenade has a thick wall against the sea, and it has drain holes along the bottom of the wall at regular intervals, so that the water can retreat. It probably has other, less visible improvements as well, to the internal structures of the bridges, bike road, etc.

Is it more resilient? A year ago, September 2023, we were hit with Typhoon Saola, the first T10 since Mangkhut in 2018. The day after, the promenade looked no different than the day before, as if nothing had happened.

Civil engineering! It works!

9月2日，超强台风苏拉（2023年）登陆广东，又一轮灾祸来临。脑海中又响起了这首歌，与您分享！
【We Are Nothing 四大皆空】https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kt8Um_uCvJI

大陆的民众习惯于听话，习惯于听众土共的指挥安排，而没有自己的主见，这是极其危险的！当土共摆烂，无法应对，甚至故意阻拦民众自行组织应对灾难，民众切身利益甚至包括生命，都是可随手牺牲的物品、棋子、炮灰时，但民众却还没学会思考、自救，悲剧由此开始！

有没有广东的朋友？如何自救，是个值得思考的问题，也是时候思考了，您的命运是交给土共，还是您自己！

临事而惧，三思而行，好谋而成！
