Squatting - taken from the bus on the way into town via two different routes - Fiji

This photo and the two that follow were taken about 5pm in the afternoon on Saturday June 18th on the bus heading back to Nabua.  You can see the river clearly in the google link provided which also shows the haphazard unplanned settlement on the flood plain.

Clearly depicting a demolished dwelling, whether it is turned to tinder by nature or design is unknown.

The density and proximity of the precarious dwellings leads one to ask the question whether there is a density of social and kinship ties in the surrounding homes.  What does 'community' mean in a squatter settlement, and when does the settlement become a neighbourhood? 

Rickety start for youth born into these conditions.  Site 2, includes this and the two photos that follow.  Indeterminate location for now, but I will edit when facts present themselves.

Relatively large, private, but precarious living due to a combination of insecurity of tenure and inadequate construction with poor materials.

Strewn garbage worsened by a lack of facilities and service provision.
