  1. I agree the incident was an unforgivable negligence.
    My quesiton is how does a group of supposedly educated actors and staff allow such a stupid number of candles in a place that has scattered cement paper bags?

    I wouldn’t blame the gov’t alone. Fire safety is the individuals responsibility.
