The mysterious Golden Triangle, an area beyond anyone’s jurisdiction. Beneath the bright lights and glamour of the outside world lie countless hidden hardships. Everyone is scheming, exhausting every tactic just to fill their pockets. I try to keep a certain distance, to avoid getting too tainted. After all, I am only a guest intruding into someone else’s domain. I wish I could walk away like others do, but it’s hard not to be influenced. Tonight, the scenery remains the same, at a riverside inn by the Mekong River. I keep turning in bed until all the lights go out.

神秘的金三角、三不管的地帶。外面的世界光鮮亮麗、燈火明亮的背後有許多不為人知的辛酸處。每個人都各自盤算。絞盡腦汁算盡機關，只為口袋的深度。我盡量保持斜度，不染太多灰塵。終究是自己闖進別人的國度。我想像他人一樣揮揮衣袖，奈何容易受左右。 今夜的景色依舊，湄公河畔旁的民宿。翻覆著身驅直到燈火散去。
