The Kapok Bed Filler

This bapak is a kapok bed filler. In jakarta some people are still using a kapok bed instead a modern bed (spring bed). This kapok is also for pillow, and even bolster. In a tropical country like Indonesia, kapok is more convenient than latex or foam. You see four big sack on his back, full with kapok. I take this picture at Jl Kramat, Jakarta, in the middle of busy traffic as commonly in the Jakarta work day.
