Although there were many automobiles in the city center of Yangon, the atmosphere was not busy. Some vehicles run the streets and some vehicles were parked by the roadside. The pedestrians walked the streets in a leisurely manner. No one seemed to hurry. Therefore, two pedicab drivers in this photo had too much free time on their hands. The customers didn't appear so often. Both of them parked their vehicle on the edge of the street and read a tabloid newspaper.
Since the popularization of smartphone, people who read paper books or magazines were not used so much as in the past also here. Most people fiddled with their mobile gear when they had a moment like other countries. I didn't know what articles they read. Anyway, they were absorbed in reading.
