So can you talk us through, so what were some of the unique features that you incorporated to try to withstand these stronger currents and this flooding that these communities are experiencing?

Chu Thi Ngoc AnhGUEST
When I designed and I harvested many of the body eggs about flooding the money and about in the recording people in the poor poor community so people don't have money i i find the two points for for my project and one is the natural natural solution and local material is one i do on the water when i waiting the I would think the wind have any direction for the exactly location people want to use power.

Chu Thi Ngoc AnhGUEST
And I make the floating house lighting, lighting because in the water level raise so, so fast.

Chu Thi Ngoc AnhGUEST
So I'm making the light in when the floating come in, housing have a raise.

Chu Thi Ngoc AnhGUEST
I using the wind wind system and natural wind system for for the closing closing housing because in the they are no in the electric so so so hot when when the more in the summer but i using in the natural wind for the closing uh basing cooling house and i think it's a safe for many money for the people in the local material i using the style on the material So I using this, maybe in the user want to change or repair of the house.

Chu Thi Ngoc AnhGUEST
In my project class, in the training skills, still for the people have easy repair the house.
