Updated: 2008-08-19 15:40 Families with medium, medium-high and high incomes will have to find new residences by themselves, he said. "But all families that lost their residences in the earthquake will receive subsidies from the government."
The province was estimated to need 37 million tons of steel and 370 million tons of cement for quake rebuilding in the next three years, Yang said. The administration is also repairing school buildings damaged in the quake and building temporary classrooms for the new semester, to start on September 1. Asked whether any collapsed public buildings were found to have been of poor quality and whether any penalty had been imposed on contractors, Yang said the provincial government is still examining the quality of damaged and collapsed buildings. The 8.0-magnitude quake affected Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi provinces, with Sichuan the worst hit. The death toll has exceeded 69,000. The provincial government announced on August 12 that all displaced people had moved into temporary housing. |
