HANDICAPPED BUSKERS


Whenever the word buskers come up, I would usually conjure up an image of some European performers doing their act on the streets. However, we do have buskers right here in Malaysia. However, these buskers are usually handicapped people who perform to get some money to live by.
Whenever I go to the Farmer's Market on Saturday, I would usually be greeted by blind buskers playing some form of traditional music. Recently, I have been encountering handicapped buskers from China performing at the Kampung Simee Simee market. I had tried taking their pictures but when they see me they quickly turn their faces or move away.
