Reported by World Journal, On March 30, 2 victims* bodies were found at the Wangjiazai Mine of Guizhou Shuicheng Mining Group, where accident took place on March 27th, after a few days of emergency rescue effort. Currently rescue effort is still going on. According to the head of the rescue team, after the Wangjiazai Mine disaster, because of the high concentration of gas underground and the highly collapsed mining tunnel, rescue work was once impeded. By adopting emergency measures, the underground gas concentration has reduced to normal, and the mining tunnel is getting cleaned up. This accident occurred when a total of 220 people were underground. After the accident, 210 came up safely and 10 were trapped underground with condition unknown.
If you look at the situation of China, under the one-party authoritarian of communist Party, people's lives are not cherished at all. To make money, regardless of the safety of facility, the workers have to risk their life to work. Disasters like this take place multiple times each year and cost a lot of lives.
Be aware! We must cherish life.
