They have to have somewhere to drive their cars (less than 1800cc, mind you) who cares about the people!

The sad thing about this is that these people have been given 72hrs to vacate while it may take 5-10years just to complete the road. What a shame

I feel for the people who lived in those houses. The government should stop playing with peoples' lives. You don't take that long to tell people that they are living on govt land. Though at least this time they gave the people time to vacate instead of just destroying everything.
