Beijing home-owners who refuse to sell land live in isolation

BEIJING, China - Owners of these houses in the Fengdai area in southern Beijing refuse to sell their land to housing developers, who have razed the land around their houses to three, four meters deep, forcing the residents to use ladders to enter or leave their homes. Local residents say the developers have offered to buy their land at 3,500 yuan (about 57,000 yen) per square meter while apartment houses nearby are selling for 7,000 yuan per square meter. About 100 families have sold their land to the developers but 12 have refused. Residents say the developers have cut off water and power supply to the stand-alone houses and they were attacked by stick-wielding gangsters last month.

Himi Pass,Nagasaki

The Himi Shindo Co. was established in April 1881. The cut and cover construction of a new road was completed on July 30, 1882. From the top of the pass, a 18-metre wide, 20-metre deep trough was dug to accommodate the new road, which was four metres in width. Until the construction of Himi Tunnel 1926, this pass area served as the last stretch of the Nagasaki Road. This photograph was taken from the Nagasaki side soon after the cut and cover construction.==Date:unknown, Place:Nagasaki, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number109‐32‐0]
