A Chinese family who refused to move for a government project have been left high and dry - after their car was left stranded on a 50ft column of earth. Officials had decided to level several hills in mountainous Hanjiagen village in northern China's Shanxi province to make way for new homes, reports the Red Network. Qu Liming, 60, refused to move his family from their home on one of the hills - but workers started digging out the soil around his house. "My son drove his car in front of the house to stop the bulldozers from digging the soil, but unexpectedly, they dug out all the soil around the car, leaving the car perched on top of an isolated island," he said. Now the family cannot drive their silver Chevrolet - and have to climb a vertical cliff face to reach their home. "Each day we really have to climb into the house, since the soil has been removed, and it's a vertical cliff for us," added Qu. "I built the house hoping to spend the rest of my life there, but now we have no neighbors, no way in and out, no communications. What should I do?" Village officials refused to comment. Source
Haha. This reminds me of the story of the people who refused to move because of construction and they did the same thing to the house.
That's ridiculous ! :nuts: Well, ate least, the family's gonna have some muscles after several climbing ... :nuts:
wow thats really messed up... lol.... oh and i watched UP lol i think the little boy was chinese haha
A rather picturesque view of why China (the government) sucks. People may think this funny, but it is a perfect example of how the Chinese government works. That is, the government will do anything to get what it wants regardless of who they take advantage of. By digging around them, the gov created such an inhospitable and dangerous condition (a Hobson's Choice really, that is, no choice at all) that the hold outs would be force to moved. This allows the government a veneer of "but we didn't force them" which I find comical. Of course they forced them to move. The first thing that the guy should do after they leave their house is to wait for the village party official to cross the street. Then run his ass over and claim that they didn't see him because they were crying too much at having to move out of their home. That would be poetic tit for tat.
