I didn't realize this happened in February never heard about it.
Sorry about the old news.

That's one of the reasons I use BBC as one of my news feeds. Pretty good international coverage.

Looks bad. Read an article in Time about 15 years ago and it said 30 to 40 coal miners die everyday in China, same story said they commission a new coal fired power plant every day.

I feel like the govt and powers that be aren't concerned about losing a few folks here and there. I can only imagine that the theory is "we've got plenty more where those came from." And "no worries as long as I/we are still making money."

If you stop thinking like a westerner and more like an asian from that part of the world you could possibly understand a lot more.

It's also mind blowing the BS that we worry and it's important here in america

Different, very different code of ethics. Scary to say the least
