I can’t answer for these houses but in northern Australia, where it is incredibly hot and humid, they (used to) build houses like this to improve airflow and help keep the house cooler, as well as for flood protection.

    I’m confused. Why does the government have to run the booze shops? I’m Australian and I cannot imagine what need there is for public ownership. Are you talking about very very remote or rural places?
