Nenek Imah: On Hobbies

Youth to Elder

Translation

Hi Grandma,
I like to play games on my phone. Back then you didn't have a mobile phone, right? What did you do in youir free time then?
In school, I learned that you used to play capteh, congkak and paper boats. That's what I imagined your kampung life to be. Is that right?
