For this week’s Weekend Snapshot I highlight retail scenes that many of us take for granted. They form a very necessary part of the food chain supplying food to the consumers.
This was taken at the bus stand near the mosque in Kuching. It was almost 1730 and they still had so much left over to sell. I would buy from them if I were not on holiday and therefore not cooking. They expose themselves to the fumes from the buses but it is a strategic location for selling to the bus passengers who are on their way home.
Seasonal durian sellers. They will normally source for durians from the suburban areas and bring it to towns to sell. The price set for the fruits and the success of choosing a good fruit ultimately depends on the bargaining skill and experience of the buyer.
Hot-dog sellers are a welcome sight in any city. Cheap food without the multinational food chain outlet prices.
Blind men being lead to a stall selling food stuff.
Volunteers helping to sell food stuff to raise funds for the blind.
Nice snapshots! What’s with the burger guy? haha =)
the burger guy was posing for the shot. akuk jadi femes nanti he said

Yup, almost the same scene back home..
Nice shots…
My WS entry this week : in HERE and HERE. Hope you have time to visit . Thanks
It’s always interesting to see how things are done in other places – I can’t imagine sitting in bus fumes all day, but I guess they’re desperate to sell. It surely can’t be good for them.
I wanted to comment on the video (in the next post) but the comments box is missing. I loved the ‘Stand By Me’ project! I also wanted to wish you well after your accident. I do hope you weren’t hurt!
So glad to welcome you on my blog.
Thanks. We weren’t hurt. The car is in the workshop but it should be out good as new soon. Just praise God it wasn’t more serious 
Amen to that.
helping the less fortunate in such a way – thats cool
remind me to my hometown
