Street Portraits


158. Children of the plantation workers. Many of them after being adults cannot fit back into their primary culture and they end up working in Sabah - legally or illegally.

The situation is sad as many of them do not have proper education. The Indonesian Consulate provides free education for these children but the schools are in the main towns and many migrants parents cannot afford the transport money to send them to those schools. There is a group of volunteers that go into the different plantations to give free tuition. But all these are only for the primary education.

163. the man is setting fishing lines across the open air near the rambutan trees hoping to snare some bats that will be flying about during the night for the fruits. If the fishing lines manages to snare some bats, there would be meat for the family.

you are correct that some of the stuff don't look like its in Sg. I shoot mostly in Sabah since I lived in this region for many years. And I also enjoy traveling so I shoot people as I come across them.
