The Algo mall collapse was an avoidable disaster based on the series of events that led to it and the number of years in which the circumstances leading to the deterioration of the building’s structural integrity was overlooked, ignored, deceptively hidden and left unaddressed.
The mall’s series of owners lied to dozens of people rather than take the initiative to resolve the leakage issue. Due to financial reasons and unethical judgements, the safety ownership became no one’s prerogative. It is clear that the actions resulting from negligence and incompetence of individuals could result in a disaster. It is hard to understand why none of the three owners of the mall fixed the leakage problem and why morals and ethics were forgotten
