According to a report in TODAY,
"The MOM has stepped up work place safety enforcement efforts since January, with more than 1,600 inspections, covering close to 850 factories in the construction sector, conducted to date.
In April, the ministry launched Opercation Peacock, which found 280 safety violations in 15 days. Four full Stop-Work Orders and 178 fines totalling more than $110,000 were imposed."
Is the dumb minister aware that this works out to less than $620 per fine, on the average. These are multi-million dollar projects! The construction supervisor spends many times of that in a few hours with his sub-contractors in karaoke. If anything, the amount versus the size of project and the lives of employees, is truly derisory.
This is what happens when you get boy soldiers to run a ministry and to deal with the buaya contractors. They are so naïve of the real world - having spent most of their lives screaming "Yes, Sir" on their way to the top.
What do you think?
