Maligayang Huwebes! Ang tema ngayon sa Litratong Pinoy ay Hugis ay Pahaba. Naghanap ako aking mga lumang larawan at ito ang aking nakita. Ito ay ang larawan ng tulay sa ilog ng Kwai. Diba’t napahaba niya? Ito ay may habang 415 na kilometro at tumatakbo sa gitna ng Bangkok, Thailand at Rangoon Burma, na ngayon ay kilala na bilang Myanmar. Ito ay isang pasyalan ng mga turista sa Thailand. Pinasyalan namin ito ng aking mga kaibigan noong kami ay magawi ng Thailand noong taong 2000. Pwede ka ding pumunta doon sa may tulay, at kung iyong titignan mong mabuti ay makikita mong marami ding mga tao doon. Kilala din ang tulay na ito bilang Burma Railway, Death Railway, at Thailand-Burma Railway. Mahigit isang daang libo mga manggagawa ang namatay sa proyektong ito. Meron ding pelikula noong 1957 na ganito ang titulo. Ito ay hango sa nobela ng Pranses na manunulat na si Pierre Boulle. Sana ay nagustuhan niyo ang ibinahagi kong larawan sa inyo ngayon at kahit papano sana ay may kaunti kayong natutunan.
Happy Thursday! The theme for today in Litratong Pinoy is something that’s long. I looked at my old photos and found this. This is a picture of the bridge on the River Kwai. It’s long, isn’t it? This bridge is 415 kilometers long and it runs between Bangkok, Thailand and Rangoon, Burma, which is now known as Myanmar. This is one of the tourist spots in Thailand. My friends and I visited here when we went to Thailand in 2000. You can also go to the bridge, and if you look closely you can see many people on the bridge. This bridge is also known as the Burma Railway, Death Railway, and Thailand-Burma Railway. More than 100,00 laborers died on this project. There is also a 1957 film of the same title. It was based on the novel of the French writer Pierre Boulle. I hope you liked what I shared with you today and hope that you somehow learned something from it.
