Jakarta's Iconic Bajai

Panorama photos don't really come out too well on the web as I am restricted to 900 pixels, so this photo is only about 200 pixels tall. Having said that, this is a 5 shot pano of these famous iconic bajai's of Jakarta. The government is trying to rid of them as they do put out pollution and they are noisy...but, it would be sad to see them go...

Cool and colorful transport... similar color and elaborate decorations on trucks and taxis in Haiti.

But what I'd really like to know is what is the guy doing between the two bajai's at the far right ? Some sort of primitive sidewalk dance ?

The guy on the right looks like he's just discovered a gift from one of Jakarta's other modes of transportation, elephants.

Again, great flick.
