The Kanto region, including Chiba Prefecture, has recently been hit by Typhoon No. 25 "Azalea" this year, causing heavy rains and disasters. Inbamanuma, a lake in Chiba Prefecture, burst its banks, causing widespread flooding. The uneasiness among the victims is spreading.

On the 22nd of this month, the day after Typhoon Dujuan approached, the house was flooded to a height of about 1 meter. At about 6:30 a.m. that day, he saw from his home that rice fields, farmland and roads were gradually being engulfed by floods, and the flooding area was approaching step by step.

"It was almost like a lake," he recalled, worrying whether the levees would burst again. He said: "I woke up at 4:30 this morning. I couldn't sleep at all."
