I saw this hilltribe lady on the beach in Pattaya selling handicrafts, burmese sigars - basically rolled-up tabacco leaves, a bit like the Beedies I used to smoke during my trips in India - bangles and the like...
No licence and corrupt to the core Thai Thamruat - Thai for police - keep these ambulant sellers fit, running down the beach whenever a Thai copper needs to pay for his Mira Noi, a down payment on his expensive Honda Black Shadow motor bike he can never pay with his meagre police wages, or maybe just some dough for the local Bordello later during the night after his shift of "serving and protecting the populace" is over...
The alien shapes in the background are just an infestation of my Farang mind...
