Maybe it's the fact that you're from a small town (I think you posted this previously) in a country with a ridiculous amount of land per capita, but your position on absolute land rights of the individual is simply not practical, especially in a developing country with 1.3 billion people. Perhaps you should accept that people need to live together, and that sometimes civil projects outweigh individual rights, you're living in a dream world.
I don't agree with everything China has done in relocating people, but it's a much more complicated situation than you acknowledge.

Like building massively inefficient industrial projects and flooding fertile farmland? The Chinese State is on a roller coaster ride towards environmental collapse and one reason for it, is its lack of respect for property rights.
