DescriptionSoo Yan (left) and Rev Alexander Don (right) standing outside of Soo Yan's store. The structure closest to the camera is made of mud-brick and the one farther back, perpendicular to the first, is a wood-sided home with glass-paned windows. A tall hill is behind them and a substantial tree is in the courtyard of the two buildings.
