Re: Bangladesh Dhaka building collapse leaves 87 dead - Nargis - 04-26-2013
dont get me wrong, Ketchim - work conditions can always be better. and we should read news like this - its unfortunate and sad.
now someone should investigate when these buildings are built:
1) do they meet blding construction requirements?
2) how many ppl are allowed in the blding before its considered a fire hazard or a hazard in general?
3) what are the SOPs used?
4) what processes resulted them in the first time round to have a fire and now a blding collapse?
5) when constructing the blding did the contractor build the building cheaply and pocket the money saved?
too many things to consider and for the Government of India to clamp down on.
if they dont care for their ppl - they expect outsiders to care for them?
