"The leasing of this structure is off the table"
A gal from Bobruisk, Belarus, shared her less-than-ideal living conditions in a viral TikTok video, causing a stir online. As Tut.by reports, this resident was assigned rental housing, but the conditions are far from desirable.
The video begins with an unkempt entrance, followed by a tour of the second-floor apartment allocated to her. The door itself is a clear sign that the apartment won't be in top shape.
Upon entering, it's evident that the wooden floors are sagging, the walls are peeling, and the wiring is damaged. Piles of brick dust litter the middle of one room, reflecting a problematic construction job.
While specific information about viral TikTok videos regarding housing conditions in Bobruisk is scarce, it’s worth noting that President Aleksandr Lukashenko has identified rental housing issues as a priority for improvement in the coming years[1][4]. Additionally, the Belarusian government has constructed over 11,000 new apartments recently, with a substantial portion earmarked for individuals in need or rural communities[2][3]. The government has even provided subsidies for 215,000 square meters of housing for those in need[2][3]. However, these new apartments do not seem to have alleviated the issues experienced by our Bobruisk tour guide.
The Bobruisk resident's TikTok video, showcasing her home-and-garden, reveals a lifestyle far from desirable, with an unkempt entrance, sagging wooden floors, peeling walls, and damaged wiring. Despite the Belarusian government's efforts to improve rental housing conditions by constructing new apartments, it seems these improvements haven't reached our Bobruisk tour guide's living space, maintaining an unsatisfactory lifestyle.
