I only knw about them when I went to Singapore and sat in the MRT. There is a Dhoby Ghuat Station. Later I found out they were Indian hand wash "launderers." Is there any Dhobies in Sarawak?<br /><br />Sorry about the haze. Thankfully I left Sarawak before Haze became a popular word.<br /><br />I normally do not hang my laundry out to dry. I put it in the drier and my heart ached. LOL God gave me a dry and breezy day. Not hot anymore, as I needed a light jacket.Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.com
