Cold Comfort: Pakistan's Earthquake Survivors
Guardian
January 31 2006: More than three months after he first visited the area of Pakistan devastated by last October's earthquake, the Guardian's photographer of the year, Dan Chung, returned to the remote hilltop town of Kuz Ganrshal in Shanga province to record the trials and fortitude of its victims.
The hardy people of Kuz Ganrshal were unprepared to move to refugee camps after last year's earthquake,
preferring to live up to five families per home instead. Oxfam has distributed blankets, plastic sheets, mats, hygiene kits and tents.
The photographer was the first ever westerner to visit the village according to local elders.
