Urbanisation
LEDC Urbanisation part 2
Q7. In the film slumdog millionaire some residents feel the area was portrayed in a positive light, this is because it is said to show reality, and “everyone wants to see reality” this shows that although there are a number of negative points in the film the positive ones are also true such as the sense of community and to some extent the goodness of some of the people of Dharavi. It also shows that the children of the area have the ability to do a lot and shows the work ethic of the people of the area. Although some bad publicity has been gained, the film will increase people’s interest in India and potentially make it a more appealing place to visit. However the film mainly portrays the area in a negative way this is because it depicts the lives and conditions of impoverished Indians, tarnishing the entire countries reputation. It will lead to a prejudiced view of India as a whole although the film only looks at a very small minority.
Q8. The two main problems are that its economic growth has slowed down and the quality of life has decreased as slums have multiplied, congestion, pollution and water problems have also increased.
Q9.vision Mumbai looks to increase housing availability to reduce the number of people living in slums and make housing more affordable, this will be possible with the building of new Mumbai , by 2007 200,000 people had been moved and 45,000 slums had been demolished for re-development. It also looks to raise adequate financing and reduce administrative expenditure this is done by increasing the efficiency of the government so they work for less and quicker. Improving transport, infrastructure, providing more train carriages and buses will be achieved by more investment in these areas, increasing freeways and expressways and the amount of parking space has been achieved by widening and beautifying the main north-south and east-west roads. This has meant they are more accessible and can be used by more people
