An old woman inside the transit camp of POSCO-India. The transit camp of POSCO, India that has been set-up for the few villagers who are so-called "Pro-POSCO". However, interviews revealed that they have been kept here forcefully since they have nowhere to go and are given Rs.20/- (50 cents) a day per head by the government for all their expenses, including food and other ration. The condition of the camp is abyssmally low. There are about 52 families sharing around 20 toilets and bathrooms.
