Aside from the fact that the driver allowed a person to come inside with a container of gasoline, and aside from the fact that said driver bolted from the scene as soon as he stopped the bus, why the hell were 100+ people inside a public vehicle that was supposed to hold no more than 50-60?? Just another milestone in the PRCs dirty laundry list, I guess... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.93.191.242 (talk) 23:03, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

CHENGDU: A blaze that engulfed a bus in southwest China's Sichuan Province, which killed 27 people and injured 74 in early June, is believed to be the work of an arsonist, local police said Thursday.

The man, identified as 62-year-old unemployed Zhang Yunliang, a native from Suzhou city of eastern Jiangsu Province who temporarily lived in Chengdu, burnt to death at the rear of the bus after setting the fire, police said.

Police said that Zhang had threatened suicide after his family reduced financial support to him.

The title in Chinese wikipedia is 成都6·5公交燃烧事件 and not 成都巴士火灾, which is only a re-direct. I think some Chinese editors are confused about the re-direct. We need to make sure that the inter-wiki link remains pointed to 成都6·5公交燃烧事件. Heroeswithmetaphors (talk) 07:17, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
