House moving in Tomoli village, Sulawesi Island, Indonesia

People from the village carry a house to a new place, using just bamboo sticks.

The house weights several tons, for sure. So it was quite impressive to see this. Not sure why the guy wanted to move their house a few hundred meters in the village. maybe they didn't like the neighbor? Or they wanted a better view? Or they bought a bigger garden?
