It will stay in the news for a week or two, then be forgotten like all the other "tragedies", expect no changes, and continued business as usual. You only need to look back at the Zebra crossing issue, nothing has changed!

I totally agree, the same as all the night club fires over the years caused by poor wiring installation. Many people died in these fires and  a few weeks later all was forgotten. Most of the same night clubs were rebuilt and are probably no safer than the previous buildings were.

The immediate government priority is to offer full support and condolences to the families affected and provide necessary medical and emotional support to those injured.

Yes, they need this from the ruling class.

I'm sure that will make the parents feel a lot better!

In many countries it is common to show that the nation support the victims

It’s ok to get upset in such a tragic situation, this just shows her humanity.

 

Now, to prove her humanity she is perfectly placed to exact effective & lasting change…. 
 

Let’s see if LGV busses are still on the roads a month or a year from now.

Let’s see the owner (not the driver) prosecuted for allowing an unsafe vehicle into operation. 
 

Let’s see if the owners of all these haulage Lorrie’s get their brakes checked…..

And being a young Mother herself - the empathy feelings would have been overwhelming.

That’s BS. she’s supposed to be the country’s leader. It’s part of her job to address significant events. I believe sympathy is a more appropriate word than empathy.
