Arrive to Tow Boh Keong temple near Jalan Kampar around 11pm, heck its packed of cars and people. Re-group with Bro Seng, waited till 12 when the "fun" starts. A long procession from temple to river bank of Sungai Kinta, where prayers being held.
It is belived that they invite gods thru waterway (therefore at river bank) and on the 9th day, they will send the gods back thru the river as well. Back to the procession / parade, there were 3 giant flags poles being balanced by only a guy (they passed it to each other thru-out the journey) which is awesome and those carrying the altar etc. Those people have to "join" the temple and on vegetarian diet for whole week / month and wearing white shirt and long pants, and no shoes.
Whole journey was "secured & protected / managed" by RELA team and traffic cops. It felt like we are having a riot or tunjuk perasaan kind of things =D and I usher into 1 year older running around. Arrived home @ 4 but clocked out at 9am. Super stim !!
more pics to come soon. slow connections =D
