Death toll in London apartment building inferno

From ABC news; 58 missing presumed to be dead in London Fire

We are engaged in construction and development, but have not attempted high rise development. The highest we have built is only 4 floors.  We recognize the risk of high rise:

1.  The earthquakes;

2.  Fires.  The fire departments are ill equipped to handle high rise building fires.  They have not built stairs and rescue equipment and fire fighting equipment to handle high rise buildings.  Hence this terrible loss of lives and property at Grenfell Tower in  London where 58 people are missing and presumed to be dead. Some of them included Filipino expatriates. (relative of Sen Villanueva?)
