South Korea builds fast. It always has. The pali-pali (hurry, hurry) spirit turned a war-ravaged nation into an industrial titan in a single generation. It also has a habit of killing factory workers, safety experts say. Those deadly consequences were on full display in Friday’s fire at Anjun Industrial, an car parts supplier in Daejeon. The warning signs were impossible to miss. Oil vapour so thick it coated the lenses of workers’ glasses with a greasy film. Grease caking the ceilings, the pipes, the machinery. Repeated pleas for ventilation improvements, met with silence. Advertisement Friday’s fire killed 14 people. Nine of them died in a single room that should not have existed. That room – an illegally constructed rest area built by splitting a single-storey space into two levels – appeared on no official blueprints. Its one small side window offered no escape from the toxic gases that filled it. Firefighters and forensics teams work at the fire-damaged factory in Daejeon on Saturday.

bunhill Asian equity markets were in the red on Monday as the standoff between US President Donald Trump and Iran over the Strait of Hormuz intensified, pushing oil prices higher and further fueling global inflation worries.
