This triplex house belongs to drug lord Alexander Mendes da Silva. It is located in the Complexo do Alemao slum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It has a hot tub in the bathroom, a swimming pool on the roof, LCD TVs and air conditioners in each room. But the most unusual decoration of this apartment is a huge Justin Bieber mural on the wall.
Even the rich drug lords homes are shitholes. I like Brazilian people but they have no class.
yeah i bet you went never to brasil, i'm near from brasil(chile) and brasil is far for being a miserable country or have no class people.
im brazilian and live in rio de janeiro
Some points are true
I personally hate to live here.
Bad things: very stupid and corrupt government, the traffic is awful here in rio, most of poor ppl are stupid, idiot and principally dumb. even broadband connection is kinda expensive for most of citizens.
Good things: People's charisma, beaches
Oh, i forgot:
its not a miserable country, but is very unequal.
Its a paradise for rich ppl, but for the poor...
do some search about about public health and transport here in rio (speacially in the downtown, known as "baixada fluminense").
damn, im tired of this place
wonderful place to visit, not to live in
Funny how people comment without knowing anything. I live in Rio, have friends in several favelas and know that things are getting better after the police installs itself inside of them. You may be hearing about those operations for the first time but it started years ago. The police occupies the favela and don't leave after. Things are changing. Of course there are lots of problems everywhere and it's far from being over. But just complaining and accusing the police of doing nothing useful for the population is stupid talk from people which have absolutely no contact with the reality of poor people from Rio.
And stop insulting each other's intelligence.
Try to take a less antagonistic tone with each other. You might actually gain something edifying from the conversation.
More ON SUBJECT, I'm glad to see that the druglords have people after them. Scumbags who manipulate and destroy like that and throw illusions over peoples' heads have a very deep Hell to look forward to, whether or not its in the afterlife. Its good to see some reform taking place.
Think of it, I know of a few places in the state where some governement control would be welcome also.
