Chinese suspend work on Gomal Zam Dam

Could have something to do with the dead guy, I guess...

#2  Your right on Alaska Paul, The chinese caring about one man in an industrial accident is like a mile long line of fire ants being concerned over the last one being stepped on by one of us! I suspect the work stoppage is related to the shifting of payrole funds to the behemoth of their military, at crunch times!

#1  â€œAt the moment we are not pushing them to resume work because of the trauma at losing a colleague,” said the WAPDA official. “As soon as they are over the trauma, they will start working.”

Ok, you guys, I know that it has been traumatic to lose one of your mates, but we also have problems, too. We have a dam to build. Do you think that you will be over your trauma by, say, Wednesday at 0800? Thanks very much, and may we offer our condolances. Have a nice day.
