Family refuses to move, house ends up on island
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article....mp;ito=newsnow
[ QUOTE ] As far as planning disputes go, it is a far cry from letters of complaint to the council over an unsightly conservatory. After a row with developers, this family's home has been left perched 12m (40ft) up on its own concrete island. It all started when they refused to accept compensation to move and, while the row rumbled on, the bulldozers excavated the site around them. Rumoured to have government connections, the family is not expected to be forced out. But popping to the shops might be a bit difficult. And as for getting the car out of the garage – well, who knows? The house is in Chongqing, central China – the fastest growing urban centre in the world, with more than 4million residents. The boom is fuelled by strong economic growth and the 2008 Beijing Olympics. But behind the scenes is a debate, that has been raging for ten years, over the need for a law giving legal protection to private property in a Communist state. [/ QUOTE ] Too bad they aren't balla enough to buy the land around them and fill it with water or something. |

There's a 0.75% chance of them owning a car. They're far more likely to own bicycles.

It would have made a little more sense if the house was actually nice, but that house is everything but nice.
