A shoe factory in Cambodia collapsed when the concrete roof caved in as workers were working. Although this was not as serious as the Bangladesh collapse 2 people died and more were injured.
This is one of many such industrial accidents that happened due to poor factory conditions, inspections, and upkeep. This incident is further proof of the larger problem that is going on here that is encouraged by our mindless consumerism. After the Bangladesh collapse many companies have signed contracts to raise factory standards, but still many key players such as Gap and Walmart have not.
