A wander through Little India has you wondering whether you are in Delhi rather than Singapore.

 

Little India is a large Indian community and it's streets and life in them are a stark contrast to the clean and polished streets of Singapore itself.

 

It's teeming with activity, and the sights, sounds, smells and textures of Indian culture are everywhere. This is truly one of the most colourful neighbourhoods in Singapore and houses several spectacular temples and is bustling with shops and stalls selling everything from gold jewellery (which has to be seen to be believed), to Hindi music CDs, cheap clothing and souvenirs.

 

It is especially colourful during traditional festivals such as Deepavali – the start of the Hindu New Year. On this visit to Singapore, we explored Little India a few days prior to the festival but on the first day we drove around the outskirts in taxi one evening and it was an explosion of colour and light.

 

Life on the streets here is very different to that of Singapore as is evident by this shop trader and his store.

We watched early one morning as this young girl arrived at a previously decided spot on the street, and set up her pitch, selling little clay pots containing I know not what. An older member of the family supplied her with the goods. Clearly, she didn't want to be there, sitting on the street at exhaust pipe level of every passing tuk-tuk. Sometimes she would attract arguments from other traders trying to muscle in, but she stuck to her guns. She was still there when we went back in the afternoon. Such is life.

India - Pushkar - Camel Trader at the Pushar Camel Fair

This location is the first store of the Trader Horn chain. In 1958, Warehouse Sales took over this former feed store. In the 1970s, Warehouse Sales rebranded as Trader Horn and branched out into a small regional discount store chain. In the 2000s, the Trader Horn chain started shrinking. In May 2016, the last seven remaining Trader Horn stores were closed.

 

This store seemed like it was out in the middle of nowhere to me. Also, it was a lot smaller than the other Trader Horn I went to in Ellwood City. This store was only a few aisles wide but went back pretty far.

Really liking how these interiors look with NLA Enb, enough to perhaps make a permanent switch from Rudy, who knows?

Traditionally, women in Laos and Thailand wear the sinh. While it has become a piece of clothing mainly worn at official and special occasions in Thailand, the sinh remains more of an everyday garment for present-day Laotian women. Nevertheless, one might rather see young Laotian women wearing the traditional skirt in rural areas than in the urban centres. Also, combining it with a Western-style shirt is more common than wearing the entire traditional outfit with a special blouse. The latter is regarded as very traditional and remains for official and special occasions.

 

Traditionally, the fabric of the skirt is either made of silk or cotton or a combination of both and woven on a loom by the wearer herself. Although mass-production and synthetic fibres have found their way into the market, it is still common for Laotian girls and women, especially in rural areas, to weave their sinhs themselves or at least add their own twist by embroidering certain patterns and motifs onto the fabrics. The designs and patterns of the skirt distinguish various ethnic groups. A handmade sinh can therefore identify its wearer in different ways, especially regarding her regional background as well as her belonging to and identification with a specific ethnic group.
