There is bunch of young ppl, around 5-6 of them appear at The Street of The Curve holding manila card and wif the word "Free Hugs" on it.
Ppl walking pass .. and just give that kind of "what are u all are doing" kinda face expression. Some even whisper in a loud voice "desperate ... " .. and of coz, some ask what organization .. and some just support by -- Hugging !!
Why are this young ppl standing there .. and giving out free hugs ?? Are they desperate ? The answer will be definitely - NO ! You wont be supprise that how many ppl are actually walking there, looks happy but yet inside of them is real sad .. or just moody. Giving a hug to them .. u might just cheer them up just by that simple way. This ppl actually doing it not for profit, not for any benefit. But willingly, just to spread the love around. We the Asian country, is not as open as the foreign country wherelse hugging is kinda common.
In Malaysia, ppl still think that .. guys hug guys = gay .. gals hug gal is ok wan. Guys hug gals = unless is ur gf, if not u just taking advantage of them .. But there is frenship hug and so on.
Not just because of what normally ppl think. But the prob is .. even tho is a free thing .. but yet, the response wasnt that awesome at all. Ppl just come and ask "Y free hug ?? " U can give out free gift .. and ppl just queue up and ask for more. But when giving out free hugs .. ppl just think that there is motive behind .. or there is some newspaper thingy .. if not there will be some candid camera doing some prank stuff .. and show on Tv .. Tons of explanation .. and tons of ppl asking us. 
Salute and high respect to those tat took part in it !! Standing there for few hours, under the not so heavy rain, expose themself wif all sort of weird and negative comments, which I believe din hurt them at all. Taking the risk of facing all sort of ppl. Seriously, u wont know what kind of motive when some weird ppl come and hug u.
What am I was doing ?? Im not giving out any free hugs .. just if u wonder. I just taking pictures and pictures and pictures. =) More stuff come out .. wait til I sort out what to post bout "Free hugs". At the mean time . enjoy all the pics !! and ... im not in any of the pic =P
