China again. And this time, the holdout is not going to die (what we fear happens to those who dare object there), but is already gone. According to this story (more photos inlcuded), "Developers bought a cemetery and paid villagers to relocate the remains of their loved ones. All except one. The grave has not been moved as the family is waiting for an auspicious date to do so and a reason from the developer for choosing this site, according to the owner of the tomb. The developers are now offering to pay nearly $160,000 to have it moved. The building is scheduled to be completed by April 2013, but for now, construction continues around the gravesite."
Life imitates art from the Clancy Brothers. But it's not just in China that these things happen. See these examples from Chicago and Honolulu.
