Web China: Child's death triggers public outcry (8)

Some storekeepers and passersby explained that they do not know any first-aid knowledge, and that is why they dared not move the boy.

The case of Wang Yue has hurt society and alerted the rapidly developing country, which has seen a slump in ethics and morality from the public, said Yang Jianhua, director of the research center of Zhejiang Provincial Academy of Social Sciences.

The public should have learnt a lesson from the first case, and not be "guards" only on the Internet. They should offer aid to those people who are in need when they encounter such accidents, Yang said.

He also suggested relevant departments should strengthen first-aid training for the public.
