Chinese bemoan 'bean curd' houses
May 29 - Some Chinese survivors of the May 12th earthquake who saw their houses crumble in the tremor have rounded on builders and the government, claiming substandard construction.
The angry residents have claimed their houses collapsed as if made of tofu, a soft bean curd.
They say builders and government officials turned a blind eye to China's building regulations, producing substandard buildings to save money.
