Cry me a river. They did this where I grew up. It's a fact of life. We need to build reservoirs and damns to control flooding and ensure the population has water when they take a bath.

While I'm with you Rochard, also, the Chinese were all rehoused...
it's still such a shame to hear stories of people living in their villages for over 300 yrs, the same towns & communities, then told to up & leave.
We're a different generation, moving around, flying from one country to another. Some of these old folk deserved maybe time or patience. Or even just sympathy & respect, love & support. They got nothing from what I hear
