There are two birds sitting in a cage outside one of the windows here - actually there's a second cage but I can't see how many birds are in that one. There's also an electric desk fan hung outside one of the windows to provide a drying breeze in case mother nature decides not to. The ragged tarpaulins and corrugated iron sheets enclose a produce/grocery store.

It's interesting looking at Google Street View around here. Pagoda Street, and the whole Chinatown area, has been spruced up in the intervening years. Pagoda street itself appears to be a pedestrian street now so there is no Google Street View of it but if you take a Street View drive along South Bridge Road and stop at the eastern end of Pagoda Street and look at the building you'll see the same roof lines.

Much like KL, parts of the old city were being torn down to be replaced though there was still plenty of character in the surviving streets as future postings will show. What stands out to me in this photo are the colors of the old buildings and the drab grey concrete of (most) of the new high-rises replacing them.
