For many years the villagers lived a peaceful life. They were farmers and fishermen. Their fields were good, and they had many fruit trees like durian and betel. The river was full of fish. The villagers worked very hard, and they had enough food.
One day a group of people came to the village. These people worked for the government. They told the villagers that the government planned to build a big dam on the river for electricity. The people said that the dam will help the villagers.
The dam flooded the village and all the rice fields and fruit trees. The government moved the villagers to a new area. However, there wasn’t a river with any fish or any good farming land or fruit trees. The villagers didn’t have enough food to eat. The government gave the villagers some money to help them, but they quickly spent all the money on rice and other food.
Then they didn’t have enough money or food. They had many problems. Some of them left the new village and moved to the city to find a job. The other people tried their best to survive. They missed their old village. They waited for the government to help them.
But the government never came to help them. The dam made electricity for the rich people in the towns and cities, but the villagers in the area became very poor. They didn’t have enough food to eat.
This is an example of development that helps the rich people and the government but hurts the local villagers. This is happening all over the world.
