Working In the Midst of Explosions
Tonight is the 50th anniversary of Malaysia’s independence - and I’m in Kuala Lumpur. For the last two nights, sounds reminiscent of artillery have rung out in the night as massive firework mortars were set off all around the small hostel where I’m staying. Last night, trucks tied with dozens of Malaysian flags sped haphazardly down roads, Malaysians with faces painted ran shrieking at anyone and everyone who walked the streets, and massive fires have been set only a few yards from our front door here.
These guys know how to throw a party!
