Rana Plaza - 3 years after

For the third time, people around the world will commemorate the anniversary of the collapse of the Rana Plaza building in Savar, close to Dhaka in Bangladesh, that housed five garment factories on April 24. The incident took the lives of 1,134 workers; more than 2,500 were injured. Tragically, most - if not all - of the deaths and injuries could have been avoided if the garment workers been allowed to evacuate early like other workers in the building. But time pressure, greed and fear prevented common sense.
