Your safety as a travelling shopper and visitor to leisure areas

The year started with more than 239 killed at Kiss nightclub in Brazil. That was January. In February we heard reports of a fire in a Calcutta shopping area. (See wikipedia on disasters.) Each country has Building Regulations.  One improvement in safety would be to have all exits numbered like pages 1/1, 1/2. An illuminated /reflective arrow and map underneath should show all fire exits. Phone numbers of owners and emergency services. (In the UK we call 999 for all emergency services. But in other countries it can be 911 for some services. Visitors need to know the local numbers.)
