I am trying to pay more attention to the news happening in the world and record it here.
An old building in Kaohsiung, Taiwan caught fire, 46 died and even appeared on the front page of CNN
An old building in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, caught fire in the early hours of last night, causing a major disaster of 46 deaths. Not only did Taiwan attract attention, even the US CNN reported the incident with headlines.
The mayor of Kaohsiung has issued an apology to the injured and victims and promised to set up a corresponding organization to prevent similar accidents in the future.
It is said that it is not clear what caused the fire, but first the fire happened at night, secondly most of the residents were elderly, thirdly, the stairs had obstacles and it was difficult to move smoothly, and finally it was said that the building materials did not meet the safety regulations.
In the face of this unfortunate accident, we express our deepest condolences to the victims and hope that the injured can recover as soon as possible.
I know that mere comforting remarks are not enough to help the families of the victims and the injured, but I still hope that I can empathize with them and let them know that I am not alone.
I hope that this incident can bring warning to everyone, so that our society can be safer and more peaceful, both mentally and physically.
