Kaki Lima: Pictures and Story by Shih-Li Kow (text), Malek Hue (photos)

Kaki Lima is a story inspired by Malek Hue's photographs of five-footways across Malaysia. This work of fiction by Shih-Li Kow is about what happens when a municipal council decides to ban shopkeepers from cluttering the walkways with their goods. The shop owners, with a little help from other urban denizens of varying degrees of respectability, decide to counter this. Unexpected violence ensues, and the lives of all those involved are forever altered.
