孙永梁今天告诉我们,从2008年4月1日开始,因工程队施工,他家就停水了。停水后,工程队刚开始每天安排民工从工地上给其抬水,但5月6日,由于整个工地停水,孙永梁家自此失去了饮用水。

In Beijing, No Answer to The Bulldozer
By Jill Drew
Washington Post Foreign Service

BEIJING, April 25 — Su Xiangyu realized his house would be the next to face the bulldozer when a beefy man pulled up a crate and sat down near Su’s front door last Friday. The man didn’t say anything. Just sat and smoked. Watched Su and waited.
“He showed up after Wang Lianmin’s house was demolished,” said Su, squinting as he scanned the field of dirt and rubble that used to be a community of more than 550 families.
Su, Wang and another neighbor were the last three holdouts to fight for their families’ homes against developers who own rights to this land, just across the street from the main Olympic park in Beijing. The three have now been forced to join the thousands of people –housing advocates say hundreds of thousands — whose homes have been plowed under in the rush of Olympics-related construction over the past seven years.
Less than four months before the Summer Games open, the forced relocations in Beijing are highlighting another cost of the Olympics, as residents make way for such architectural glories as the National Stadium, known as the bird’s nest, and the apartment and office towers springing up nearby. Whole neighborhoods have been wiped out. Especially controversial has been the destruction of about 800 of the city’s 1,200 hutongs, lanes full of traditional, courtyard-style houses.
Beijing real estate prices are soaring, but residents are often blocked from realizing the full value of their homes when the government orders them out. Many complain that compensation levels set by authorities are far below market rates, making it impossible for them to find comparable housing elsewhere.
“You can never win when you sue the government,” said Su, who fought in the courts for more than three years after he and his neighbors received their first demolition notices on March 7, 2005. He refused to accept the developer’s settlement offer even after most of the others had done so.
By the end of 2006, only 12 families were left in what was once Yangshan Village. One by one, their houses began to be demolished.
Su’s ex-wife, who still lives with him, recently began pressing him to settle. The neighborhood had become a construction zone, and things were starting to feel unsafe. On April 1, the water was cut off.
Su had lost again in court, but he did not want to give up. He visited his great-grandfather’s grave, seeking a sign.
“I am full of feelings for this land,” he said. “I was born here. My family was all here.”
Then, on Thursday last week, Su watched as Wang and his family were forced from their home. Then a demolition crew, backed by 30 police officers and guards, razed the house.
Later that day, Su found the silent visitor on his doorstep. On Wednesday, he agreed to settle and began moving out. The bulldozer arrived the next day.
Beijing’s North Star group, which owns the rights to develop the land, has designated the area around Su’s home as a future park, part of a luxury “green home” project. The company is one of the main developers in Beijing’s Chaoyang district, where most of the Olympic venues have been built.
Two North Star officials, who would not give their names, declined to comment specifically on the evictions. They said the company followed all the district government’s regulations concerning removal of residents and adequate compensation.
North Star workers are busy planting hundreds of trees and finishing grand marble entrances to what signs now call Yangshan Park.
Villagers wonder, given the land’s value, whether their former neighborhood will remain a park after the Games are over. The land is just across the street from the new Forest Park in the main Olympic complex. Forest Park is already twice the size of New York’s Central Park.
Meanwhile, luxury apartments on sale in the area go for the equivalent of roughly $270 per square foot. The final village holdout, Sun Yongliang, is being offered $57.
“That is not enough money,” Sun fumed, arranging tree branches on his roof Thursday that he plans to torch when bulldozers arrive.
Zheng Minzhi, an official in the Chaoyang Housing Administrative Department, said the district has approved a forced demolition permit for Sun’s house.
“I know this is hopeless,” said Chen Zengxia, 34, one of Sun’s relatives, zipping up a red jacket against the wind. “But I have no regret. There’s not one farmer who fought back against the Chaoyang district. That’s why they bully us so much.”
The next day, in Guanxizhuang Village, across Forest Park, a few people did fight back when workers arrived to demolish their run-down brick homes, not far from the Olympic Green National Tennis Center. A Chaoyang district official said that the government wants to build grasslands and playgrounds there and that the villagers would be compensated.
A man and a woman tried to protect one home by throwing bricks at guards trying to grab them from their roof, but they were tackled,bound and taken away. A handful of police, backed by dozens of hired guards, municipal officials and a demolition crew, kept 200 or so villagers at bay and attempted to block photos of the confrontations.One villager who tried to film the events was dragged off.
“Are we going to host the Olympic Games this way?” a woman shouted.”To force civilians to move away?”
