Disadvantages Of Putian Shoe Factory After Its Big Fire

The cause of the "10. 21" special fire accident in Putian city of Fujian province is still under investigation.

After the fire that killed 37 people and injured 19 people, a small scale workshop was set up for a small workshop mixed with materials, workshops and staff dormitories banned by the state law.

The local government said that we should take this opportunity to upgrade the industrial level and pform the mode of economic development.

China's current fire law expressly provides for the prohibition of the establishment of staff dormitories in buildings with workshops or warehouses, and the Feida shoe plus workshops that are responsible for accidents are typical "three in one" setting enterprises.

It can be said that it is precisely because the owners ignore the law and cut costs and profits to make a fire that is too small to cause a particularly serious accident.

This accident has exposed the backward development mode of the footwear industry in Putian.

The footwear industry is the largest industry in Putian, with an annual output value of 15 billion yuan.

However, there are not many scale enterprises in the shoemaking enterprises of the whole city, only 190 of them are relatively standardized, while more than 200 are small ones.

In the Xiuyu district where Feida's shoe upper and workshops are located, 64 "three in one", "two in one" processing plants and small workshops were cleared up within 3 days after the accident.

The small workshop has already had a huge negative impact on the local footwear industry. The leaders in Putian have summed up the following aspects: vicious competition, the prevalence of fake and shoddy, disrupting the labor market, labor disputes, and a large number of tax sources and output value from outside the government statistics.

Most of the developed areas of private economy in China have experienced the development stage of "family ignition and household smoking".

This particularly serious fire accident shows that scattered and poorly managed workshop production has become a typical example of backward productivity, endangering industrial health and social harmony.

If we do not change the way of development, instead of sheltering or even conniving this low level of industrial form and backward production capacity, the consequences will be unthinkable.

Feida's vamp plus workshops were jointly banned by Putian's Xiuyu district safety supervision, fire protection, industry and commerce departments and the wat Shi town government in 2004. After the relocation of the site in September 2006, they continued to produce illegal products. The two instructions issued by the town government were not implemented this year.

This shows that there is still a "going through the motions" problem in the supervision of such a blatant enterprise. The root lies in the fact that the concept of development of the local government has not changed completely.

After the fire, Fujian and Putian carried out special actions for safety production.

All sectors of society look forward to the courage of the local government to take the initiative to break the law, and resolutely say "no" to all kinds of backward development ways that violate the law and violate the people-oriented concept, and push the economic development into a sound and fast track.
