A Chinese national flag is raised atop a house whose owner refuses to move out due to compensation disagreement with the real estate developer in southwest China's Chongqing Municipality, on March 21, a day before the deadline of moving sentenced by local court.

Chongqing citizen Wu Ping who refuses to move out from her old house, shows the Constitution of China and her determination to withstand possible force removal of her house.

Dwellers in an old house, who refuse to move out, tug a kitchen gas bottle to the house from the bottom of a ten-metre-deep pit dug by the real estate developer.
