Rescue efforts continue in Bangkok as teams search the rubble for survivors of a building collapse caused by Myanmar's earthquake. Hopes dim after 72 hours, with drones, excavators, and sniffer dogs aiding the search. Anxious relatives await news, clinging to hope. Investigators probe safety standards, focusing on construction materials. Thai authorities highlight irregularities, including worker shortages and delays. The building, constructed by a Thai-Chinese venture, was the only structure severely affected. China pledges cooperation in the ongoing investigation.
