This is what one Egyptian worker said to Al Ghad:

جريدة الغد:
أنا داومت الشفت الصباحي وروحت الساعة ستة، واحد من الشباب اللي ماتوا كان ساكن معايا في الأوضة“.

It was shocking news that spread on the mobile phones in the evening yesterday. Only a few weeks after a fire in the Jordan Gates project, a deadly construction accident happens, costing two lives and scores of injuries.

This is quite alarming news! It’s also very sad news..

As I write this (way after midnight) I am shocked almost no Jordan Planet blogger has bothered to blog about this. There only was Jad’s post.

    Maybe no one said much because the news coverage on JTV was so bad. It did not come on the 11 o’clock news until 20 minutes of listening to bits of trivia. News travels fast in this country thru friends but am slightly concerned that taking everything that is said as the whole truth could distort the picture. We are such a country of rumours! T

    “Jordan planet” is just a name, and maybe its not the planet of all the Jordanian blogs :-) proudly I think I was the first to blog about it! also most of the people did not know about the huge fire accident that happened to the same building 3 weeks ago! however, it’s really really such a sad accident, poor those labors, it’s like they need more difficult stuff. Allah ey3een
