  1. Re the first example of poor health and safety, I’ve seen the like quite often in Sri Lanka, with workers demolishing buildings using simple hand tools.

    Frightening to see someone standing on top of wall 8m high, in flip flops, smashing the masonry to pieces with a sledgehammer aimed between their legs.

    Eventually it gets done, but I have to wonder how often a worker slips and falls?
