No photos!

On Saturday, after the long journey back from the border, the car needed a fill up and a good wash. We headed to Khak Gas Station... After filling up, they give a coupon for the car wash... Amazing! Especially considering that in 2006, Mu mostly filled up his tank by purchasing his gas from a child at the side of a road who then emptied on of the plastic containers filled with pink (the premium gas) into the tank.

I had to take a photo. What I didn't expect is that the car wash man would come and tell me that photos were not permitted. Mu laughed and asked why the man thought that the station was so important as to prohibit photos. But I wonder.... is this a left over from more dangerous times? Does a photo give a plan to someone with bad intentions?
