14 SEPTEMBER 2015 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A man being evicted looks into the home he is being forced out of near Wat Kalayanamit. Fiftyfour homes around Wat Kalayanamit, a historic Buddhist temple on the Chao Phraya River in the Thonburi section of Bangkok are being razed and the residents evicted to make way for new development at the temple. The abbot of the temple said he was evicting the residents, who have lived on the temple grounds for generations, because their homes are unsafe and because he wants to improve the temple grounds. The evictions are a part of a Bangkok trend, especially along the Chao Phraya River and BTS light rail lines. Low income people are being evicted from their long time homes to make way for urban renewal. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
