• Ronald Dam : [translated from Dutch]  But can the municipality really carry it out?

  Self - Architect : We have to try to bring into being a kind of foundation, or a housing association, which is going to manage De Pijp as a residential community.

  Ronald Dam : Now I'd like to come back to what you just said, you know, about selling it to the municipality, but before you can sell it, the squatters will have moved in.

  Self - Architect : [pondering]  Before you can sell it, the squatters will have moved in... .

It looks like a bloody hard question you're asking me!

  [pause] 

  Self - Architect : So the fact that people want to live there after all says it all.
