Myself and some of the PMers (photomalaysia) and DA members went out to roam the street of Kuala Lumpur in search of homeless . Not just to take shots of them but to understand the pain and grievance that they have gone through.

As we wander for hours, we came accross an old guys sitting, then sleeping at the sidewalk in between Macdonalds and Central Market, as usual being chicken (at least me), trying to use the telephoto to get a good shot of him, since he looked to me like a bit hostile.... As we continue walking we bumped again with this guy, he was sitting down on the road behind the macdonalds (not the backlane), the group was like trying to figure out ways to approach this guy.. and of course, the ringleader (evan -- [link] ) came and approach the fella together with george (another member of the team), and we all start to crowd on him.

He then tell us his story..... in summary he is actually from Betong, and have been homeless for the past four months. After all his properties where impounded after he was "jampi-ed"(black magic) by some evil people, leaving him and his entire family to roam the streets of the Klang Valley. He continuously advised us never to simply give out our IC to strangers, an advice we were very sure to keep for a very long time.

Me myself was touched by the story told by him, by the expression of his face and tears in his eyes... he touched my heart.....
