Reflections on the Wangjialing Mine Disaster

Reflections on the tragedy at Wangjialing Mine After eight tense and heart-wrenching days and nights, danger was turned into good fortune in Wangjialing, and 115 workers were successfully rescued. This should be a joyful result. In 2007, a water leakage accident occurred in a coal mine in Shaanxian County, Henan Province. All 69 workers were rescued after being trapped for three days. The deputy county magistrate in charge of production safety cried bitterly in public. Indeed, it is not easy. I have to take a long breath to cover my tears. I am sorry for how difficult the life of the miners is! God bless, this time Wangjialing created an even greater miracle of surviving for 8 days, and at the same time set a new record. "Most of the miners were rescued 190 hours after the mining accident, creating a miracle in the history of China's mining accident rescue." So. Fortunately, it’s no exaggeration to sing and cry for a long time. It should be said that all links are closely linked, the forces of all parties unite and cooperate, and the people-oriented principle of never abandoning or giving up allows us to win the race against death through selfless dedication and tenacious struggle, and the world has once again witnessed the touching feeling of Chinese people united in the face of disasters. strength. Miracles move people and make them reflect on themselves. Because bad things may turn into good things, but luck cannot be copied casually. Two weeks after Shaanxian County in Henan celebrated the reunion of workers in distress, the same "incident" was repeated in Shandong, with another rare heavy rain causing flooding into wells. Unfortunately this time, there were tens of millions of cubic meters of water that could not be drained out, and all 172 people died. Although the Wangjialing mining disaster finally achieved a relatively ideal rescue result, it is gratifying and fortunate, but it still makes people feel fearful - what will happen if the underground conditions can only sustain life for 3 to 5 days? If the displacement could reach 2,000 cubic meters per hour earlier, could the rescue time be shortened? If the accumulated water is not 130,000 cubic meters but more, how will the 153 lives be accommodated? Although it is a bit cruel to think about the worst, it is not impossible. The survival of 115 lives actually cannot withstand simple questioning. It is true that various circumstances have increased the difficulty of rescue operations, but while talking about success, it is not necessary to deny that the Wangjialing Coal Mine only has two water pumps. Some workers reported that the rescue work lacked coordination and the drainage speed was difficult to predict, indicating that the emergency response work was still insufficient. This is not a blind nitpick, just like this "incident" could have been avoided. If everything can be done better, it should be regarded as perfect. Miracles make people happy, but they also require careful reflection. The success of the Wangjialing rescue is not the end of the mining disaster, but just the beginning of learning lessons and changing one's mind. There is still a lot of work to do on how to make the alarm bells truly sound, how to avoid indifference to life and insensitivity to hidden dangers, and make Wangjialing a new starting point for safe production rather than a node in the cycle of "accidents - rectification - accidents" To do this, we need all parties to take concrete action. We hope that the three words "Wangjialing" will be remembered in the future, not only because it once allowed the whole of China to witness a touching miracle, but also because it has become a watershed in production safety since then.
