Kampung Pelangi, a small village in Indonesia, has transformed itself into a stunning display of bright colours and whimsical designs, a huge departure from its former state of squalor.
A former run-down slum in Central Java, Indonesia has received a dazzling makeover. It all started when junior high school principal Slamet Widodo, 52, saw the need to improve his community. He proposed the painting of all 390 houses in Kampung Pelangi, his native village, in bright colours. The government then pledged over $22k towards the initiative, and the transformation began.

Overseen by mayor Hendrar Prihadi, 232 homes in the area have now been adorned with art. The project encourages “the active involvement of citizens in the improvement of their home,” says Prihadi. In addition to filling the town with art, residents will also undertake the cleaning of the nearby river. Since beautifying their village, Kampung Pelangi has seen a sudden increase in international tourism. This rapid influx of visitors has led to a jump in local food and souvenir sales, benefiting the local economy.

This is just #8,537,460 (@$1 - #380) and gave a community a face-lift.
I can see that Africa's problem, is having leaders bereft of 21st century ideas, but clouded by traditionalism.
Youths of 18-40 let's take this nation forward, by taking it out of their hands.
