Praying for Tianjin... How are all my colleagues?

What’s the current situation, and what are the reasons? . .

When facing disasters, we often say prayers for blessings, but what do we overlook? Security management? Determination of accident liability? Hide certain things? Issues with compilation? Training issues? . . . . Should the issue of firefighter staffing be considered? As part of the active force, most firefighters in China serve for 2 years, with an average age of under 20. In contrast, in foreign countries, most developed nations have a professional fire service system. The requirements for becoming a firefighter are quite high, and there are excellent benefits associated with this role; as a result, most firefighters are willing to make it their lifelong career, working for 30 to 40 years on average. This allows them to gain a significant advantage in terms of experience accumulation and knowledge transfer.

Why were firefighters sent in to rescue people without first understanding what a fire is? Could there be an issue of improper command here? What a young life! How many more families have lost their only child? It’s such a shame! ! ! How can their parents bear such a huge blow? Who is responsible for them?

There are too many problems exposed this time; perhaps this is what’s known as the ZG style

Praying for the firefighters and **soldiers fighting on the scene.

A system that can prevent disasters from occurring is a good system, whether it is socialist or capitalist; the same holds true for firefighters.

I hope so, but how much truth can we hear?

As of August 16th, the number of casualties in the explosion in Tianjin has reached 112, and this figure is likely to rise further; it’s truly a tragedy. This tragedy could have been avoided or the casualties reduced. After watching the videos of the explosion posted by netizens, I felt a shock when the second explosion occurred; I realized that the rescue workers and firefighters on site were doomed, as the force of the explosion was far beyond anyone’s imagination. No one wants firefighters to sacrifice themselves in vain, and no one will allow them to die needlessly, but such incidents still happen. Afterward, we must conduct a thorough analysis: were there any issues with our project approvals? Were there any oversights or failures on the part of the safety supervision systems? Did the fire brigade have a proper understanding of the situation at the scene, and was their response appropriate? . . Who will answer all these questions, the government? As a chemical engineer, I have seen too many instances of non-compliance and violations; I have always strived to stay true to my principles, just as my mentor told me when I first started in this field: \"When we do design work, we must always be responsible for the safety of people’s lives and property.\" “I hope the government will punish those responsible severely, that no more tragedies will occur, that it will handle properly the matters related to the disaster areas and the victims, and that those who are still alive will cherish their families and lives.

If possible, I still hope to know how the result will be handled And for future prevention, there are so many precious lives at stake, but what can be done afterwards? What can be gained from so many deaths? A life may just be a number in a report, but for a parent, for a family, it represents the world, it means everything. **Is there anything these days that is transparent enough to allow us to give without any hesitation?**

There are too many casualties. Prevention should still be the priority.
