Holi/Day 2024, PJ
I walked in to a Hindu Diaspora Supermarket, and was pleasantly greeted by the staff who is from the badlands of UP, came to Malaysia through an agent via Thailand. The working class in North India is slowly making its way to Malaysia and the Gulf for jobs which were popular in Kerala and Tamil areas in a previous era. The barber from Delhi greeted me as well.
In another Tamil Hindu Restaurant, Happy Holi greets me from a migrant worker from Tripura, who is looking forward to head back home. He said that he was home for Holi last year which struck a chord. I was home last year as well.
