On the registration day (Not the wedding one...)

Author's note: Raise your flag!

OK, so the couple have registered their marriage legally. Here's another event of registration.
It was the candidature registration for the general election.
Since they stay quite near to the registration center, they went there to have a look (in other words being nosy).

The registration was for the constituency of Petaling Jaya Utara. Just two parties showed up for the registration. Obviously the pro-government had larger crowd, more banners and more flags. The opposition was not too bad. Just a bit unorganized.

Early morning, the posters were up.

Ready for the march.

Paparazzi!

The candidates. What was the little girl looking at?

More crowd, more flags, more banners.

The blue wave...

The wedding of ....

This wedding has some similarity with ours but, by comparison in every detail, each is still distinctly unique.

Day 2: A visit to some of The Tokyo Toilet project

On the second day of my trip, I decided to visit some of the public toilets under The Tokyo Toilet project. The idea was inspired by the film  Perfect Days . Since the public toilets under this project are scattered around western side of Tokyo, I visited a few in Shibuya area, which are quite close to each other. One notable location is Yoyogi Park.  One of the highlights of these designer toilets is the transparent toilet. Its transparent glass walls will turn opaque when the door is locked. This feature is based on the electrochromic effect. However, this feature is unavailable during late autumn and winter, which coincided my visit. The key takeaway from this visit: an eye opening experience about toilet culture and social inclusivity.

Trip 01-06: Day 8-9 (The end)

Day 8-9 (13-14 May) We proceed to Thailand in the morning. The immigration process was the easiest. We crossed the river by boat and reached Chiang Khong (the border town of Thailand). Then a mini van to Chiang Mai. Arrived in Chiang Mai about 4pm. Looked for a cheap room and then had an excursion around the town. The next day we will depart and back to M'sia. It has been a pleasant trip for the whole week. Laos is a beautiful and peaceful country with abundant of unspoiled forest and mountains. Now we have to get back to our real life. End of the trip.
