The coal industry is improving, analysts said. They credit continued focus on safety in resource-rich areas like Shanxi province for reducing mining's death toll in China to around 2,000 in 2011 from 3,786 in 2007 and nearly 7,000 in 2002, according to figures from Hong Kong-based China Labor Bulletin.
20,000!!!???? SKOL STOP LYING.
i took the follwing from the WSJ site you seem to like of late.
it says 2000 deaths, and while still a high number its not the stupidly extreme number you come up with to justify your fear of a burgeoning CHINA, and assuming you can bear to read the article,you will see the figures are droping each year.
its ridiculously ironic that you chose to comment on how those 'naughty chinese comrades' are manipulating figures, and then you go and inlfate yours x10.
your argument is now totally busted, i suggest you have some degree of humility and appologise for your pathetic analysis, then go away for a bit and think about how inept you look
