The humanity of Chilean mine saga: a poignant contrast with China
On 5 August 2010, more than 33 miners were trapped deep inside a mine, causing many to fear for the worst. However, remarkably, 17 days later, the miners were found to be still alive, to the relief and joy of their families and countrymen. After reading news stories of the events, one couldn’t help but be struck by the stark contrasts with Chinese post-incident report coverage. Photo of Santiago by Kilzana.
