Below the car window where the boy stood, an advertisement for view gift certificates was displayed

Boy wearing watery polo shirt — Boy looking out of a train window

The train slowed down as it entered the Phaya Lan station and stopped with a window just in front of me as I stood on the platform. The window in front of me was open, and a boy in a light blue polo shirt was standing inside the car. He had his hands on the window sill and was probably enjoying the view through the window. When the train stopped at a station, a strange foreign tourist appeared in front of him. The boy was a little startled when he suddenly had his camera pointed at me. He stared at my camera without saying a word.

A closer look revealed that there was a destination board under the car window. However, there was no destination displayed there, but instead an advertisement in Japanese. This car was a used JR car that used to run in Japan. It seems that it is too much trouble to change the Japanese language display, which most people do not understand, so the train is running in Yangon with the advertisements that were displayed when the train was running in Japan. In fact, there must be no one here in Yangon who can understand the "View Gift Certificate" displayed in Japanese.
