“The squatters are here”

Forced eviction of residents of slums and “crowded communities” are common, especially when the working class, often the poor, are without rights to land and housing. These communities clash with the authorities, corporations, rich landowners, grand institutions, for having an illegal home on someone’s land. However there are no road-maps nor community plan of action to ensure basic rights to adequate housing. The slum dwellers, the homeless, are expected to survive, in a capitalist-fueled, agony-hungry city called Bangkok.
