Merdeka in Teluk Intan

I spent my Merdeka weekend at Teluk Intan (or Teluk Anson, as the locals still call it) courtesy of D's family on the maternal side.

The most unusual event of the weekend happened on the way there though - on the single-lane "highway" from Bidor to Teluk Intan, a band of Indian boys stopped us on the road.

To give us something.

A Malaysian flag. Which they promptly stuck onto my car and waved us goodbye, to cries of "Merdeka!"



That's Malaysia for you. I love the place.
