here they came a-gathering

There is a reason why they call this place the "Land of a thousand Smiles"

everyone is so calm and kind (maybe it's heat exhausion)

Even during protests

(:

on the lighter side of things: i found myself in this weird conversation

thai photographer (tp) : (raises voice above the rally shouting in background)

"so you are from Ap?"

maye : (thaksin Ork Bai! (Ork Bai means get out!) carries on in the background)

"yup."

tp : "so where are you from?"

(singapore ork bpai now in the background)

maye : "urmmm"

. pause .

"malaysia"

i'm sorry Singapore. "I still like you many-many."
