I have spotted this interesting view in Perlis while driving my little one around after dropping my wife at the clinic in Kangar. The modern architecture in the background is the main conference hall in this state of Perlis. The little shack is where farmers stored the diesel water pump for the rice field. You can see the rubber pipe dipping into the small canal. For TrekNature fans, the plant in the canal is Pistia stratiotes.
