Recall all dorms construction bids and revise to exclude inflammable materials

Dear Editor,
Your editorial of 24 May (Mahdia tragedy, https://www.stabroeknews.com/2023/05/24/opinion/editorial/mahdia-tragedy/) on the horrific deaths of 19 children in a dormitory fire on Sunday night (and other children who are seriously burnt, all the children scarred for life) reminded us of the government’s serial failures to learn from the earlier deaths of three schoolgirls in Waramadong Secondary School dormitory in August 2008 and the fire that razed the boys’ dormitory of the Bartica Secondary School 8 months earlier in December 2007.
