Smile! It's not the end of the world (26)

These smiles are brought to you from the centre of the world, or at least within 100 meters from the Equator. This is from the northern outskirts of Pontianak city on western Borneo.
In a workshop you can see the Equator monument dating back to colonial days, judging from the Dutch word Evenaar.
Both pictures, from 1976, were scanned from Kodachrome slides.
PS I have seen now on Google Earth that the monument has been modernized since 1976.
