Heavy rain has been pounding Sichuan Province recently. A landslide in Hanyuan County, Ya 'an City, killed seven people and left two others missing in the early hours of Aug. 21. Local villagers said officials announced the evacuation too late. Ten families were buried in the landslide, and the government hasn’t been able to arrange accommodation for the evacuees, leaving them to find their own hotels. Mr. Zhu, who owns a restaurant in Zhonghai Village, told The Epoch Times on the afternoon of 21th that his village had 200 to 300 families. The house that Mr. Zhu had spent about 3 million yuan to build was buried, along with his restaurant, cattle, and more than 200 carrier pigeons he kept.
