Errrrrr, hang on a minute. Before you knock down buildings by whatever method, how about first of all providing new housing for the people displaced, not the other way around.

Know what you mean Sunny. The thing is it won't just be houses it will be business as well, maybe hospitals and schools. Seems like a tall order to me and can't see it happening . Maybe they will make all these people go and live in all the empty houses where over building has gone on :)
