it’s not the photo that took my attention but the comment Bin Im wrote …

Bin Im Landen :”Naturally I understood what he meaning and gave him a good bakschisch.
Because I know he is very poor and has to sleep outside with the dogs on the ground beside a temple in Patan.
And it’s getting very cold in wintertime in the Valley of Kathmandu.
But unfortunately there are many rich tourists who always have an excuse for giving nothing.
I was together there with my distant relative Stan Mc Gregor from Scotland.
Actually Stan was a fine guy but unbelievable closefisted.
He didn’t give anything to this poor old sick beggar, not a single Rupee.
I asked him: “Why you give this poor leper nothing, not even a single Paise ?”
Stan answered: “Because I have to support my poor sister.”
But I did know that Stan never had given anything to his sister, not a single Pence.
I told him this.
Do you know what Stan answered me without batting an eye ?
He said: “When I don’t give anything to my own sister why then I should give something to somebody totally unknown to me ?!”
I was completely perplexed by this excuse and didn’t know whether I should cry or laugh.”
