Kais pagi, makan pagi
I took this photo some time back. I never thought to publish it but as I was looking through some of my older photos and saw it again, I thought that it told a story. There's a saying in the Malay language.
"Kais pagi, makan pagi. Kais petang, makan petang."
Literally, it means that you make just enough from you work in the morning to have your morning meal, and you make just enough from your work in the evening to have your evening meal. It is hardship and strife. For some reason, this picture makes me think of this phrase.
