Hope of finding survivors was diminishing Tuesday as rescuers used heavy machinery including bulldozers to search for at least 107 people trapped under a landslide in rain-hit southwestern China. Villagers huddled in tents set up at the site as rescuers searched for their family members. But there appeared to be little hope for survival, with no word on casualties or survivors by noon Tuesday, said Tian Maosheng, an official from Guizhou Communist Party Propaganda Department, who is helping with the rescue. "The number 107 remains unchanged, and there is still no sign of life here," he said. [ YAHOO NEWS ]
