Are the hotels safe?

We all know about the Sichuan Earthquake - we heard about it, we saw it on the various forms of media, we feel for it... One of the most frequently asked question of the locals were... the schools! why they just fall apart? Can't they suppose to be able to withstand earthquake up to richter scale 7+??? But why they collapsed so easily? Yes... these are questions to be left to the local authority to deal with...

But what appalled me was... in a recent forum letter in the Straits Times, one parent wrote it to complain. Why why... this is a forte of the Singaporean, some would say... but I think it's really how reasonable the complaints count!
