Lady Of Klong Toey

With the help of John P I was able to gain access to Mercy and make a few photographs of the "The Lady of Klong Toey". The statue is revered mother type figure for the children and others at the Centre, it allows all the orphaned children to have a symbolic mother of sorts.

Not sure the photograph is anything exciting but it was enlightening to talk to John P and to get a bit of insight in to his thinking. Mercy is sort of a Oasis a Sanctuary in the slum world of Klong Toey. John compared it to a Temple in a a small town, a safe haven for people to congregate.
