This is my first time to participate in Mellow Yellow Monday.
Photo shows the yellow container full of gasoline. An improvised pump is used to siphon the gas out and onto the car’s tank. This mini-refill gas station is a common sight especially in rural Cambodia. The gasoline comes from the Vietnamese border, unrefined, thus cheaper than the ones sold in gasoline stations. This was even featured in the previous season’s Amazing Race in their Cambodia leg and the contestants find the task very challenging. It was fun to watch them sweat it out, filling their chosen trucks with gasoline all by themselves, while the locals watch them amusingly!
