What are some housing issues in Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia and Cambodia?

Question

I'm trying to make country profiles user-friendly for an organization tackling poverty housing. I know that squatters, unsanitary slum areas, and forced evictions are an issue in the Philippines. There are also a lot of homeless people and slums in Bangkok (the capital of Thailand), and because the majority of economic activities take place in the one city, these don't seem to be a problem in other areas. I'm not very informed about the other countries, and I'd like your help on them.

Answer 1

Building codes are nearly non-existent. Electrical safety, Plumbing infrastructure and earthquake resistance are poorly

addressed/regulated.

Having said that . . . no place is perfect and you can't spend your life worrying. If you are looking for more info. Google

each country separately with these keywords.
