We sincerely hope the potential risks of accidents can be eliminated and the management in the railways sector be improved, says an article in Beijing News. The following is an excerpt:
Two passenger trains collided in Shandong province on Monday 28, killing at least 70 people and leaving some 400 others injured. Officials said the accident was caused by "human errors" and ruled out terrorism.
Faced with the accident, relevant departments have many things to do. But what are the most urgent of all? I think they should first of all properly handle the aftermath of an accident.
