It has only been six weeks since the collapse of the Rana Plaza in Bangladesh, and workers in our region have faced another disastrous event. On Monday June 3, a fire in a poultry processing factory in the north eastern Chinese province of Jilin killed over 120 workers. The reason so many workers died was that only one exit door was open, with the rest all closed from the outside to prevent workers from taking breaks outside. This is criminal behaviour on the part of the managers of the factory. They need to be tried for mass murder.
