2004年2月15日,新春伊始,吉林省吉林市中百商厦发生特大恶性火灾事故,死亡54人,伤70入,中百商厦向每位遇难者亲属赔偿人民币8万元和为遇难者支付抢救、治疗费用。这一恶性事故仅仅是由一个随意丢弃的烟头所引起。在反思消防意识薄弱带来恶果的同时,我们不得不思考这样一些问题:如果吉林市中百商厦没有这么大的资金实力,遇难者能否得到这么多的补偿?一旦事故责任方无力承担赔偿责任,谁来补位,依然是政府吗? On February 15, 2004, at the beginning of the new year, an extremely serious fire accident occurred in Zhongbai Building in Jilin City, Jilin Province, killing 54 people and wounding 70 people. Zhongbai Shopping Center repaid RMB80,000 to relatives of each victim and paid for the victims Rescue, treatment costs. The accident was caused only by a disposable cigarette butt. Reflect on the weaknesses of fire awareness weakness, we have to think about such questions: If the city of Jilin hundred buildings not so much financial strength, the victims can get so much compensation? Once the responsible party incapable of compensation liability Who will make up, is still the government?
