Month of Hungry Ghosts

For those who are not familiar with Chinese calender, since yesterday (Monday) is the Hungry Ghost Month (七月初一). A day started with 20 people dead in a 20 years old "Super" Express bus near Taiping. Someone must answer this!!!

The driver had 13 traffic summonses - some still outstanding - and two warrants of arrest against him while the 20-year-old bus, which also had 19 summonses, did not even have the permit to ply the route.


Time to pray. My condolences to the families.
