The weather has been erratic lately, with strong storms and extreme natural changes across Asia and the world. Many provinces in Thailand have experienced heavy rainfall and severe storms, causing damage to gardens, farms, and homes.

The severity of natural disasters is increasing every year, requiring the government to urgently respond to these annual extreme changes in nature.

It's noticeable that not only the provinces, but Bangkok, the capital, also has to deal with all kinds of disasters.

Disasters arise from landslides, floods, strong winds, storms, wildfires, toxic smoke, and air pollution, both from natural causes and human actions.

Most recently, a man-made disaster occurred at the Lat Phrao Brewery, where the owner and management were negligent, using substandard and highly flammable construction materials. When the fire broke out, these materials ignited quickly, spread rapidly, and produced toxic smoke.

In addition to the substandard materials, multiple fire exits were closed, and emergency response measures were inadequate, resulting in this tragedy. Many people who used these services died or were seriously injured, causing loss to their families and loved ones.

This is not the first time such incidents have occurred; they are recurring in Thailand because business owners and managers prioritize profit over giving back to their customers.

Therefore, when customers use these services, they must be treated with the utmost care, including service standards and safety measures to protect their lives and property.

In addition, the government, stakeholders, and relevant agencies must strictly enforce safety standards for human lives. They should not favor cronies, influential individuals, or be greedy for money to the point of disregarding the lives of others.
