Bangladesh factory owners surrender in 2012 fire-that-killed-112
Paragraph 1: What was the argument in the article? What evidence did they give to back up this claim? What do you think about the issue? What did you learn that was surprising/interesting/upsetting? The argument in this article is that the building needs to be more safer. Safer for the workers, more exits, better managers, and owners should be more diligent of their workers. There was a fire in the building and there were no exits in the building except the main one. The one exit got crowded and many people didn't make it and died. The managers told them it was a drill, and nothing to worry about. They later got arrested, and the owners also got arrested. They are not sure how the fire started, but they think it started by a lit cigaret. I think this is upsetting and shocking because the own managers lied to them about a fire. They even locked the gates on the people, in the higher levels. The managers escaped but the 112 people died. One man said he had to climb down a bamboo tree to get all the way down to escape.
