School report

Latest entry in the SQR blog, “Village schools still struggling to be rebuilt.”

After the earthquake destroyed many of the local village schools in Qingchuan County, it was decided that rather than rebuild each small school, a large central school would be built in the nearest town. Unfortunately, for many of these villages the nearest town could be more than twenty kilometres away, along roads that have frequently been blocked by landslides, or made inaccessible by local rivers bursting their banks during the rainy season.

Read the rest of the entry, and note the coded language. For, “People started to wonder if…” read “Everybody knows that…”.
