2015 Peranakan Convention

Babas being berated for pointing their feet at respectable senior Nyonya! Aiyoh, Tak seronoh!

Attending the Peranakan convention in Singapore I had with my stealth scribing kit! Z-fold 4 piece 2x1 foot board, a few flip charts and my Neuland marker pens. Unplanned and unannounced I decided to scribe flipchart size from my seat 3/4 way back in the hall. The flip chart I folded in thirds. And my backing board I used as a 2footx2 foot square.

Above you see my favourite moment captured. And below...

Some people so coy about revealing their dark secret: they are Peranakan!
