„nother viaw of the squatter's homes: Note the house on right is made of packing cases. ́ The children are happy and carofred as they have probably
- known no other way of living.
LEFT: A typical scene of the miserable standard of housing. The huts are made out of bamboo, old packing cases, metal sheets and gasoline tins. None of the roofs is water- proof. There are over 400 huts like these.
LOWER LEFT: One of the better type of huts which boasts of a paim-leaf roof.
BELOW: Main Street in the Kowloon squatter's settlement.
