Since the beginning of June, torrential rain has caused floods and landslides in 42 villages in South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. More than 11,000 homes have been destroyed and 200,000 people have been evacuated.

Heavy rain in Hongdu brought this 50-ton rock crashing down the side of a six-hundred meter mountain and into a local villager's house. Luckily, no one was hurt.

Local villager Pan Weiwu said, "It was raining heavily at that time. Suddenly I heard a very big noise, the house start shaking, I thought it was an earthquake. I ran out of home and saw a lot of rocks are coming toward the house."

Many houses were completely destroyed by the landslide. Other homes were heavily damaged by the vibrations and can no longer be used. The local government has leveled the damaged houses to prevent future injuries.

Meanwhile, 130 people are now staying in tents set up in safe areas. The local government is providing them with the basic living necessities while building new houses for them.

Local villager Pan Zhongwu said, "All five family members are now living in two tents that was built by the government. They also brought clean water, food and other living necessities. We feel safe and comfortable living here. We are rebuilding our homes with their help."

Village vice chief Huang Zhenshi said, "We will build houses and guarantee all the influenced villager will have place to live in. We will try to help them move in before October 1st.

Meanwhile, two more huge rocks high up on the mountainside are at risk of falling any minute, further endangering the village. The Guangxi rescue group on Monday started 35 days of work to dislodge dangerous rocks and guarantee the long term safety of the village.
