Residents resettled

PADANG, West Sumatra: A total of 319 people from the Taratak
village in Lima Puluh Koto regency have been resettled at the
Timpeh VII transmigration site in the Sawah Lunto regency.

The people are the residents of the village devastated by
landslides a few months ago.

Lima Puluh Koto regent Aziz Haily told the people when he saw
them off last weekend that they should adjust themselves to their
new lives, Antara reported.

In addition to obtaining land for farming, the people will be
entrusted to work at the oil palm plantations. (par)
