Grateful to be receiving so much love and support from friends in Malaysia, since i have come back recently. SE Asia is my chosen intellectual home, and have been here for a decade plus across times slots. Every place needs time to sink in, and as a visitor one needs to understand the nuances here. A lot of it Is unwritten, and is understood in silences and the twitches of the eye. Food is a great way to sense a place, the rhythms of how one eats and engages in leisure gives away the ‘vibe’.
A complicated place definitely, but a kind place if one seeks to understand.
