On the night of July 12, a massive fire broke out at a club in northern Bangkok, Thailand.

A survivor recounted the urgent situation, stating, "The flames spread so quickly that there was no time to think, and there was absolutely no way to escape. People inside didn't know where the emergency exit was, so they ultimately couldn't get out."

Those who could not make it out of the building were found dead inside and around the restrooms. There were no windows there, and no emergency exits in the vicinity.

In the past, many people have lost their lives in club fires in Thailand as well.

Why does the same tragedy keep repeating?
