So sad indeed,, What I have observed is that, in many companies if not all safty rules are not enforced, nor did I see labour inspectors, too much corruption, negregency, I cry for my mother Malawi, ppo working at that height without safty belts, if it was aroad accident ppo would blame the drivers, but now whom to blame, The construction Industry?
