"Garang guni... Garang guni... Collecting old newspapers, old clothings, spoiled tv, spoiled radio..."

Sooner or later, garang guni man will become as extinct as dodo birds. They'd take their places amongst the middle-aged malay aunties who used to hawk their drool-inducing, homemade curry puffs & nasi lemak along HDB corridors in the 80's.
I like garang guni men. With their trademark horns and rickety-crickety trolleys, they bring a sense of calm and predictability to this increasingly messy world...
