I think if there is a traffic police in this village, he could have just issue many summons for such a travel mode. But the children obviously have not realized the danger of making a trip in this manner especially along the bumpy road . Who cares? Perhaps that is the only way of catching a ride when the van is fully occupied. This is another colourful image that I have captured in Sumba, Indonesia.

While all the others were busy marketing their goods at the Muara Kuin Floating Market, Banjarmasin, Indonesia, these group of children were having more fun climbing to a higher level in order to jump into the water. Any mishaps and danger of immediate injury obviously is not in their mind. I think that is the real excitement of the simple daily life.
