Four workers killed, five badly hurt as crane collapses at Bangkok construction site

So if the building was completed, accident-free, no officials would question how it build without the proper crane permits?

In some cases, they do not even notice that a few extra storeys have been added until several years later, so they would hardly be expected to bother about the way in which the crane was used or whether it had the appropriate permits. Turning a blind eye to this sort of thing can make a lot of people wealthy.

  • RIP to the workers but i think the authorities need to shut down every crane and do inspections of not just the cranes but the operators as well to check their license to operate thats if this country

  • "No serious damage to the building". Jolly good. We now know where priorities lie.

Always love those kinds of news reports  --  BMA discovers a decade later than a hotel or apartment that was supposed to be 8 stories has instead been built to 15 stories...  And somehow, they managed to never notice.

Looking at the picture, it must have hurt like hell with broken bones being lowered in a harness. 

Yeah, not good at all
