A Thai construction firm finds itself at the center of a major crisis following two devastating crane incidents that claimed 34 lives this week. Now the company is racing against time to stabilize its finances. It's seeking approval from investors to overhaul approximately $446 million in outstanding debt through restructuring. The dual tragedy has cast a harsh spotlight on the firm's operations and raises serious questions about workplace safety standards and financial viability in the sector.

34 lives lost, and this company is still thinking about how to save their own wallet... That's a pretty desperate priority.

Laughing out loud, this is the common "dead first, then reorganize" tactic in the crypto world, but this time the dead is a real person, not code.

ngl this company is really adding insult to injury... 34 lives lost, with debts reaching 446 million. I think this restructuring is pointless. So many people have died, yet they are still thinking about financing. The priority seems a bit... The construction industry has long needed to address safety issues. Just fines alone probably won't save this company. Let's wait and see how investors choose. I bet 5 bucks this won't end easily. The incident in Thailand seems to serve as a wake-up call for the industry, but it might already be too late. At this point, compensation for the victims' families is the most urgent matter, more so than restructuring.

34 lives... This kind of thing is truly shocking. Can money save a financial crisis?
