Malang Old Festival (Festival Malang Kembali) is one of the event to celebrate anniversary of Malang City.
The event took place along Ijen Boulevard. For the last three years 2006 - 2008, Malang Old Festival was conducted on May.
The theme of this festival is old or traditional culture and stuffs.
Visitors of this festival are expected to wear traditional outfit like kebaya for ladies or sarong for men
But not all visitors willing to wear that kind of outfit. Some just wears jeans and t-shirt.
Maybe hudred thousands of people visit during the 3 days festival.
Traditional candy
Exhibition of Indonesian traditional martial arts or pencak silat
Even buffalo was considered as old stuffs. Maybe because it is rarely found at the city.

Wooden Pallet
On April 2008 I did a visit to a pallet manufacturer (located in Pasuruan, East Java) to audit as required by ISO standard, since they supply material for the Company I work. Here’s some snapshot there.

Btw, photos for this post I scanned with Canoscan 4400F I’ve just bought a few days ago, @1600 dpi, tiff file.

The Backlighting
Sometimes taking picture in the backlighting situation can be fun
At the restaurant
At my "kampung" or small village
In a hotel lobby

At the train station - part 1
susah
- i've got a strong urge to fly
but i've got nowhere to fly to - pink floyd
memang susah
kalau terlalu banyak
yang ingin diungkapkan
untuk mengurai satu persatu
tak tahu harus mulai dari mana
serasa semua mendesak untuk dibuka
kadang terfikir
untuk mengumpulkan semua jadi satu
lalu menuangkannya dalam sepatah dua kata singkat
seringkas peluit kereta api :
kereta segera berangkat, pengantar silakan turun,
mohon mundur dari jalur rel ......
namun ternyata itu juga tidak sederhana

This was on Lawang Station, about 15km from Malang, East Java.
Next 4 photos was taken in Gambir Station, when I went to Jakarta on December 2007.
