When a disaster comes, God will not let you go just because you are rich and famous. In the face of disaster, everyone's chance of escape is the same. No matter whether you are poor or rich, no matter whether you are a civilian or a celebrity, you are so small and helpless in the face of disaster. All we can do is to respect nature, respect life, protect ourselves, not gather in crowded places, and abide by various rules.
This also sounds a wake-up call for those who do not abide by the rules. Don’t underestimate those rules. When it’s okay, it seems to be a constraint, but when it’s critical, it can save your life. Many rules are exchanged for the price of life with blood lessons.
Take Hong Kong as an example. Hong Kong's Lan Kwai Fong also had a stampede during the New Year's Eve from December 31, 1992 to January 1, 1993. On that day, young people gathered there to celebrate the New Year. Nearly 20,000 people gathered in Lan Kwai Fong in a small place, but there were only more than 100 police officers who maintained order.As more and more people were added, the worst stampede accident in Hong Kong's history occurred after 0 o'clock, killing 21 people and injuring 63 people! All the victims were young people aged 15-30, including six minors, with the cause of death being suffocated. After the accident, Hong Kong learned from its mistakes. During large holidays, the police would send a large number of police officers to the scene to take various measures to maintain order, such as implementing abortion control, pulling cordons, restricting one-way walking, pulling adult walls, setting up ambulance stations, etc. The subway also serves overnight so that people can go home in time.
Hong Kong police pull adult wall
Therefore, this year is also Halloween. Although there are many people here in Hong Kong, they spend it safely.
I remember that a few years ago when I went to , Huaihai Road, , Shanghai, there were a lot of people. Every time the red light was on, the armed police officers and soldiers built a human wall, prohibited passage, and waited for the green light to light up before letting it go, and went to another direction to build a human wall. There were a lot of pedestrians at the intersection, but they crossed the road in an orderly manner under the command of the armed police officers and soldiers without any panic. At that time, I thought it was unnecessary, but now I think it is very necessary. If South Korea can use snacks in management this time and take a variety of measures, such a disaster will definitely be avoided.
So sometimes, disasters occur as man-made disasters!
The dead are gone, and the living are like this. I hope this incident will arouse everyone's vigilance and reflection, and no similar incidents will occur in the future.
