- 104, 56, what is behind the two numbers? It is the hundreds of lives that have not had time to bloom, and the epitome of countless families that have been torn apart!
The claws of the fire are spreading relentlessly, why has our attention not been able to coalesce into a force? Is every investigation just a casual formality?
Safety is the cornerstone of life and the source of all blessings. However, in less than three months, there have been a number of major fires in succession, leaving hundreds of lives away, which is undoubtedly heart-rending and painful.
The occurrence of these fires not only brought huge losses of life and property to people, but also was like a relentless storm that ravaged people's hearts.
Next, we will review the larger fires that have occurred in the past three months, in order to learn from them and prevent them from occurring.
At 3:20 a.m. on November 5, 2023, a large fire broke out in a house on Shengli Street, Xitou Town, Yangxi County, Guangdong.

A total of 104 people were killed and 56 injured in these eight disasters, which makes people feel heartache. These figures are not only cold statistics, but also the loss of fresh lives and the shattering of countless families. In the face of such a tragedy, we must be soberly aware that the importance of fire prevention awareness is urgent.
Every accident seems to be accidental, but in fact it is inevitable. The reason for this is nothing more than a weak ideological sense of safety and failure to put safety in the first place; The safety management system is not sound or the implementation is not effective, the safety measures are in vain, the hidden danger investigation is superficial, and the daily supervision is a mere formality, which eventually leads to tragedy.
After experiencing a serious safety incident, all levels always come to the meeting as scheduled and quickly convene a safety production meeting, as if this has become a common practice. However, this kind of hindsight has become meaningless for those little lives that have already passed away.
What is needed for safe production is prevention and vigilance, rather than remedial action after an accident occurs. We should prevent safety incidents at the source, rather than just holding meetings after an accident to discuss how to deal with it. Because of the lives that have passed, they can never come back.
On January 26, the Office of the ** Safety Committee issued the "Notice on Carrying out the Centralized Rectification Action of Fire Safety", which specifically mentioned the "1.24" special major fire accident in Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province and the "1.19" major fire accident in Nanyang City, Henan Province, and required that from now until the end of March, the fire safety centralized elimination and rectification action will be organized and carried out nationwide.
This notice, like the timely spring rain, has played a vital role in preventing fire accidents. It is required to activate the responsibility investigation mechanism and seriously investigate the responsibility of relevant personnel in accordance with laws and regulations, which not only demonstrates firm determination, but also provides a strong guarantee for curbing fire accidents.
Hidden dangers are often born from negligence, and disasters are caused by subtleties. We must be deeply aware that in safety work, there is no possibility of "foolproof", only the inevitability of "foolproof".
