Man On The Striped Saiq-ka

Shot in the city of Pyay, Myanmar.

When I came to a cinema, I found a man wearing a longyi. He was sitting on the seat of a pedicab called saiq-ka. He was its driver and waiting for customers coming there. For good or bad, any customers didn't come to him. He had nothing to do while he opened his mouth. He might be disappointed of his purpose. When I took some photos, another pedicab passed by.

His beloved pedicab was red-and-white striped like fire-extinguishing vehicles in Japan. It could be easy to notice even in the crowded street.
