I took the photos of Merdeka Parade below in August 31 morning. The parade was at the road in front of Marina Court. Tell you, I was extremely tired. I was in the Merdeka Eve Concert in Padang Merdeka until 1 AM. Then I waked up at 5 AM and went to Wawasan Plaza, which the parade started, at 5:30 PM. That's why a few photos look dark (taken between 5:30 - 6:30 AM). I heard some of them were saying, "Why the reporter came so early?" Luckily that day I brought a foldable chair with me. Otherwise I would be pushed behind the crowd and could not take any picture as I was weak and exhausted.
