A sign at Jallianwala Bagh, in Amritsar, India. The grounds mark the spot where, in 1919, British troops gunned down several hundred unarmed Indians who were portesting against British rule.
A billboard outside a Cambodian military base on the road from Phnom Penh to Battambang, encouraging people to turn over their weapons.
A fascinating combination of music and fine arts in the southern Thai city of Hat Yai.
Posters plastered on a wall in Dharamsala, India (home of the Tibetan government in exile), reminding people of a Tibetan monk scheduled for execution back in China.
Not much to say about this sign in Chiang Mai, Thailand, other than that it seems a bit funny.
Finally, this sign in Taxila, Pakistan makes is the kind that makes a foreign budget traveler weep. Not that 200 rupees is that much, but 10 rupees would have been a really, really good deal.
