Local people have cleared land for farming, and loggers have cut down miles of trees to sell the wood
to other countries. Now there is a serious shortage of trees.
Nowadays, in Indonesia’s rural areas, many of the houses are built on stilts. They raise the houses
up, keep the living area off the wet soil, and also keep the houses from flooding during the rainy
season. Some people still live in houses with only one room, and some of these houses do not have
electricity or running water, but they cannot afford to improve their housing.
In Indonesian cities, more and more people live in crowded apartment buildings. However, it is
hard for people to find good housing. The electricity often goes out throughout these whole buildings.
Moreover, landlords do not want to rent their property to poor people, and banks do not want to lend
them money to buy homes.
Because of its location, natural disasters such as floods, droughts, earthquakes and forest fires
frequently occur, which destroys buildings and leaves people homeless. These disasters affect people
both in the city and in the country.
