Did someone told him about « windows » ?

Wow, I didn’t think there’d be two comments saying this. This is about slums in Brazil and the Philippines, you should look up the conditions of the housing the people there live in.
This is pretty high on the disconnection from reality scale.

From the article... "Most homes and businesses in the slums of Dhaka have no
power and no windows, so 80-90% of them hook up to
electricity lines illegally - and fall back on candles or
kerosene lamps during regular blackouts."
