Nov. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Typhoon Mirinae left at least 123 people dead, one missing and 145 people injured in Vietnam, and caused more than 5 trillion dong ($280 million) in damage, the National Committee for Flood and Storm Control said.

The typhoon plowed into Vietnam’s southern central coast on Nov. 2, causing floods that swept away nearly 2,400 houses in central and southern Vietnam, the committee said today in a statement.

Mirinae’s rains submerged 19,300 hectares (47,700 acres) of rice, 47,000 hectares of vegetables, corn and sugar cane, and more than 371,000 hectares of industrial crops, such as rubber, the committee said in the statement.

Typhoon Ketsana, which hit central Vietnam in September, killed at least 163 people and caused 14.3 trillion dong in damage, according to another report on the committee’s Web site.
