You know that how? Most likely this will have been caused by one of three things, electrical wiring, a Loy Krathong lantern or Chinese lightening., at 3 am there wouldn't have been that many people there to start a fire, if any at all. 2 3 1

Read your own quoted article as it says; "Investigators are checking if the fire was caused by sky lanterns" PS; my emphasis added to the quote! The exact cause will almost certainly never be confirmed but I guarantee you that lanterns will be held responsible. The government has been pushing for years to ban lanterns completely so this incident will play into their hands nicely. Too bad about the market though and the livelihoods of the people who had businesses there, the place held a massive amount of stock. 1 1
