Aint communism great?
Red China will invade Taiwan sooner rather than latter. They got to get the populations minds off the communist governments failures.
50 gallons per SECOND is not a small seep
Since when is safety a concern in China?
Glad to hear it.
Bkmk
The real problem is the wonderful CCP :
Li Yuanhua, a former associate professor of education at Capital Normal University in Beijing, believes that the Three-Year Plan is a merely a formality.
“Why is it a pseudo-proposition? Because they have done this many times, but the safety problem has not been solved,” Li told The Epoch Times.
Li further pointed out that although the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) stipulates rules, these rules are not enforced. The unsafe mines are able to get permission to restart operation because local governments pursue tax revenues, and there is collusion between government and business entities.
“The crux of the problem is this: Do they value miners’ lives or coal? The fact that many coal mines are still operating without safety [regulations in place] is related to the corruption of the CCP. Some coal bosses in Shanxi can start their mines without safety [regulations] after bribing officials. We only talk about the security issue now, but there are also a series of problems such as destructive mining and environmental pollution.”
“CCP officials are willing to carry out small campaigns like the Three-Year Plan. [By doing this] they can satisfy the leadership as well as take money from the lower levels. The point is that no one really cares about the safety of miners,” Li said.
“If a nation respects life, the result will be completely different. In Australia, the government fines for neglecting safety [protocols] are very high. If any enterprise dares to ignore [safety protocols], it’s almost impossible for it to keep running, so no one dares to ignore [the rules]. Why are there so many people who dare to ignore [safety] under CCP rule? Because the cost of neglecting human life is lower than the cost of security.”
“The CCP has no respect for life,” Li said. “So the corporates’ approach is to make money first. If something goes wrong, use money to fix it; if nothing goes wrong, they just get away with it. It’s the inaction or disorderly actions of the communist regime that encourages coal companies to do this.”
As another poster said, since when is safety a concern in Red China? If they are closing these down for being unsafe, then they must be nightmares in the worst sense of that word.
Wow, just wow.
