Just as a frame of reference, the most severe typhoon to directly hit Taipei seems to be Typhoon Morakot, which recorded wind speeds of 150 km/h (90 mph). The most severe tornado to hit Oklahoma seems to be from 1999, in which wind reached 484 km/h (301 mph).
another important point, typhoons are very big, so wind blows against a building in one direction. Tornadoes are very small, and would push on a skyscraper in multiple directions in the rare event that it hits a skyscraper and doesnt immediately dissolve due to lack of airflow. Airflow from multiple directions would mostly cancel out.
typhoon != tornado.
I am sure they have something in mind, though.
Japan is really good at designing skyscrapers that handle earthquakes.
But whenever I see one of these skyscrapers, I wonder if Freud had a point...
Sometimes a skyscraper with balls is just a skyscraper with balls.
