Shelter for the Less Fortunate


"Home is where the heart is", that is an old saying which I first heard from my grandmother. Because of poverty, a lot of people here in our country do not have a descent home. Some of them would either squat in the suburbs or worst under bridges and near the river banks. Good thing our government did somehow find a temporary solution to these problem. They were able to convert some unused government land into a residential space intended for the people who squats around some private lands or around the city. That is also one of the many reasons why the image of our country was ruined and they still continue to ruin it because of the fact that they can not leave their houses in the squatters area because accepting the relocation means loosing their source of income. And without their source of income it also means no food for their family or their children specifically. 


The housing project that the government is providing is actually a very good remedy for those people who lives in the squatters area. Aside from a decent home, they also provide an easy payment plan and assure the people that they could still make a living even though they are far from the city. I could understand where these people are coming from, they are hesitant because they are unsure and not properly educated with information about their relocating sites. Our government are giving these people better homes and also good environment for their children. Relocating sites are near to schools and churches and the surrounding are clean unlike in the riverbanks and under the bridge which is full of dirt and pollution.


The houses they built, as shown on TV is just enough for one family to live in, some houses are even two stories with complete furniture and enough space for everyone to roam around. I wish that these houses have also window baskets and hay rack planters of their own, since they really can not make a garden in their front or backyard because they do not have enough space, at least with these window boxes they will be able to plant flowers or herbs to add beauty to their home. I am just lucky to have grown up in the province because we at least have our own home and a safe environment for everyone in our neighborhood.
