Rebuilding the Slums
|
Some
districts in the Huê
Province,
similar to the Kim Long area, host a poor population, living in slums.
Some
of these people live in such squalor that it would be unacceptable living
in most parts of the world. Their
shacks are no better than the shanty towns of Brazil.
During
the rainy season, the spectacle of the slums is much worse and deeply
shocking and sad.
Our
true friends of Vietnamitié Lorraine
decided to take on this project.
By
Mid-2008, 6 slums where converted into respectable hard and
dry houses!

No comments on the next pictures…
Thanks to
Vietnamitié Lorraine, Nancy, France, 6 houses
have been build.
The cost for
rebuilding a slum varies between €500 and €750 according to the families. In Vietnam, one can
build a clean, hard, sheltered, dry, and above all, dignified house for a
relatively low cost. Compared to the cost of construction in Europe, this is a
ridiculously low budget.
