Last week's fire that destroyed the shops and product of countless merchants is not over. The fire has been put out, but small business owners are left without a business. They have no shop to operate from, and no product to sell. Many of the victims sold dried seafood goods that come with a high cost. They have lost tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.Property owning giant, The Link (領匯), eloquently refuses to pay for any damages to the victims, despite failing to notify them that the emergency sprinklers were turned off 15 days prior to and during the fire. Not surprisingly, they immediately went into PR mode after the fire. Experts went on television and radio to explain how it wasn't their fault.
Some may think that The Link is making perfect sense, and that the merchants are hysterically trying to recoup their losses. What many don't understand, is the situation that these people are now in. They have basically lost everything. Anyone in their situation would be hysterical. Who wouldn't try to get their life back? While The Link's corporate fat cats sit around and skirt responsibility, the reality is that these victims have lost their business and some of them will starve.

Re: ahsir
I completely disagree with you on this one. Did you read the article?
People are all about themselves, while Big Business is all about money.
Rich people can never ever understand the plight of the everyday man. Most of these heartless jerkoffs only care about the profit margin.
