Bangladesh Kills Over 110 Workers

Tragedies in Bangladesh 

November 25, 2012 in Dhaka, Bangladesh over the weekend more than 100 workers died in a fire and of smoke inhalation. The problem that many factories suffer are that a lot of factories don't have many fire escape exits and plans if a fire happens, which caused many people to die. These factories produce products for major companies such as Tommy Hilfiger and Gap which are sold by Walmart, Walmart knows that these workers suffer everyday of these hazardous chemicals but don't plan to help out or even stop it. A member from the fire department named Major Mahbub says that "The fire could have been caused by an electrical fault or by a spark from a cigarette". Someone in the building may have done this or could even have a machine blowup and caused a fire.
