  1. Someone somewhere cut corners and needs to be held accountable, but seems like it won't happen , if this was a swanky penthouse department block , then heads would role and people in prison !

  2. why did this building not have fire sprinkler system. or another word fire suppression system. every building should have them. they save lives

  3. Someone has to take responsibility for the cladding, I've changed my policy on fires,if there's a fire out of control, just run as far away as possible, quickly as possible

  4. ROight, eight'point'six mills been raised to renovate, and say, five hundred K's of that was actually spent on materials… (not to mention couple'o'thousands that miraculously disappeared in one of the fire inspector's trouser pockets.)
    Also, looking at the residents, i sense stereotypical "that'll do" approach towards the services, from the company, since the whole flat seems to be habited by one immigrant law violation to another.

  5. I hate how government leaders always say they’re saving people now and investigating tomorrow. We all know investigation starts immediately. They just want to have more time to change stories so they aren’t blamed. Literally every country does this. ?

  6. ไม่ทำสงครามเหรอเมื่อมีกฎ?ของฝรั่งกับคนฝรั่งของคนไทย ?พวกมันไม่จ่ายค่าน้ำค่าไฟในบ้านกูหนะ ค่าสร้างที่อยู่ที่ดิน?ทุกคนต้องจ่าย?หาว่าเป็นคนหมู่บ้านประเทศ

  7. this is the mossy version of 911, ??? 20 yrs ago ??? but no one is cheering for this disaster are they, thats the difference between them and us. we value life, no matter what religious belief it is

  8. Who is the idiot who passed that cladding material ? He should know aluminum is a very good conductor and low melting point flammable plastic sandwiched in between is a disaster waiting to happen. Definitely not fire proof.

  9. I blame the cladding and fire men like they needed a bigger ladder and a faster escape also they told them to stay in their flats which is wasting time of their escape like I’m kinda right aren’t I?

  10. Why do thay care about saving money peoples lives were at risk thay knew there was gona be damage but the government does not care for the people this is heartbreaking and upsetting knowing people lost there lives god bless those people I'm praying for them and I'm mad at the government thay have rights to be angry and upset the families just wanted to know were are there loved ones I'm praying for the family and I'm sorry for the losses
