Street light beggars

Street light beggars

From Neraca

The fly-pass that connects downtown Kota and Jembatan Lima, North Jakarta, has been used for many years and by even more motorists. Every time I pass this road I get irritated at the Jembatan Lima intersection where two or three lame beggars are always sitting in the middle of the road with outstretched arms asking for money. They do not move even when the traffic light turns green.

Not only does this practice endanger the beggars themselves, but the drivers who infrequently use the road will be shocked to find beggars sitting right in front of their cars. Worse still, the beggars are there during the night.
