China witnessed many such tragedies when building infrastructure
People like to say China this and that but you know stuff like this was very common in China- just read up stories from that era
Or you can look at eminent domain laws in US (granted are much more humane than China but also results in costly, slow infrastructure building)
Start from 1:10
Even in eminent domain (humane than China)
Compensation is decided by Government- so you know lower than market rate
Want the city to devalop or want to take care of people?
Hard to do both even in rich countries and ours is a poor one
