At least 67 people have been killed after a work platform collapsed at a construction site in China's Jiangxi province. The accident happened at a power plant in Fengcheng where a cooling tower was under construction. China has a long history of industrial accidents and there have been growing demands for more stringent safety standards. Alexandra Mackenzie reports. www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-38093210 |

But hey it's faster. |
