    A skyscraper window cleaner in South Korea has spent nearly 30 years overcoming his fear of heights to keep buildings like the towering 555-metre (1,820ft) Lotte World Tower gleaming. Despite the challenges posed by wind, rain and snow, Seo Seung-ho and his team of seven cleaners work to give the building a full once-over each year. Seo says he finds his job rewarding, as he takes pride in seeing the magnificent Seoul skyline from above while maintaining the iconic structure.

      Its not replaced by robots because theres "award winning" designers in the world, so the robots can service few buildings and theres many 4D factors including wind

    近日報道,内地許多運油車既運送大豆油等可食用液體,也運送煤製油等化工類液體,運油車在換貨運輸過程中不清洗罐體,事件引發食安風暴。不少網民表示,繼到香港買奶粉之後,「又要去香港買油」。
