Let's Do The News! (August 3, 2014)

The big scoop today...

- In the People's Republic of China, there was an explosion occurred at a Chinese car parts plant near Shanghai.

- Meanwhile in Taiwan, a gas-triggered explosion occurred in the streets of Kaohsiung on the 31st of July, killing 25 people and injured over 250 people. The aftermath is like a huge reminiscent of disaster movies when the world starts to crumble into pieces.

- The Expendables 3 may not hit theaters until this month but reports told that there was a pirated file of the film leaked through the net and it was illegally downloaded 189,000 times in a day. Much to the annoyance, some guy in the Philippines noticed that the bus he rode showed the pirated movie to passengers.
