Daily Photo – Beware of Shoe Thieves

Do you remember that scene in Slumdog Millionaire when the boys are hustling at the Taj Mahal? That was the scene that flashed into my mind when I saw the scan below as it came off my scanner earlier this year. Except this photo was taken in August 1989 outside a temple in Penang, Malaysia. It may have been the same temple as the one yesterday's Buddha resided in, but I don't recall.

I like the way the first sign gives the instruction to not wear shoes. Then the lower blue sign attempts to address the unintended consequences of that directive. Curiously, while the directive sign is in English, and Malay, the blue sign in in English and only!
