Kuchovha bhasikoro muBangkok. Zvinoita sezvinopenga. Traffic inogara ichimhanya uye vatyairi vemotokari havana kujaira mavhiri maviri. Pamusoro pezvo, kupisa nekunyorova kwenzvimbo dzinopisa zvinonetesa. Hapana kupokana naMichiel Hoes. The makumi mashanu-chimwe chinhu akaita bhasikoro bhizimisi rake. 'Paunotenderera une mhepo isingaperi uye hapana chinokunetsa.'

Mubatsiri Nicky anobva kuInoshamisa Bangkok Cycling, ABC kwenguva pfupi, anogadzirisa chigaro changu. Zvinotora kujaira, nekuti bhasikoro iri rine kumiswa pazasi pechigaro chechigaro uye mumabatiro. Asi tave munzira. 'Isu' iboka revazhinji vashanyi veDanish, Michiel Hoes, Nicky (kwete zita rake reThai) neni, takanyora kupenga, nekuti zvinoramba zvakapenga.

Nhanganyaya - ndiani? - uye mirairo yekuchengetedza kubva kuHoes yakatopedzwa vasati vasimuka. Pedzisa nemajee akajairwa. Ndapota ramba uri kuruboshwe rwomugwagwa. Ndiro divi risiri iro, nokuti rutivi rworudyi ndirwo rutivi rworudyi, handizvo here?' Basa iroro.

Vana kubva pazera remakore mashanu vanobvumirwa, asi vanofanira kuratidza kuti vanogona kutenderera zvakanaka. Kana zvisina kudaro vanogona kungoenda kumusana naamai kana baba. ‘Haungazvidzore, asi njodzi huru hadzisati dzamboitika muno,’ anodaro Hoes (59), achirovera tsinga dzake patafura yemapuranga.

Farang

Kuchovha bhasikoro kunokuendesa nemumigwagwa asiwo nemumikoto yakamanikana yezvitangwena. Vanhu vanotinyemwerera vachitikwazisa zvine ruremekedzo: sawadee.

Kuchovha bhasikoro farang (wokune imwe nyika, kunobva kumutorwa wechiRungu) zvirokwazvo kuri kukonzera nyonganyonga.

Michiel Hoes akauya makore anopfuura makumi maviri apfuura kuburikidza nemushandirwi wake panguva iyoyo Tairendi. Kambani payakatengeswa mushure memakore mapfumbamwe, Hoes akasarudza kuve muzvinabhizimusi akazvimiririra. Kwakava kuhaya mabhasikoro uye kuronga nzendo. Pakutanga kwaimbove nekukakavadzana nemumwe weDutch business partner, asi sezvo izvo zvisiri pamufananidzo, zvinhu zviri kufamba zvakanaka.

Kunyemwerera kusingaperi

"Pasinei nenhamo yatiinayo muno muThailand gore rega rega: hembe dzvuku neyero, tsunami, kugara kwenhandare yendege, kukwikwidza ... uye hongu, mafashama."

Zvechokwadi, patinenge tichichovha bhasikoro tinomira pa wat, temberi yeThai. Mushure mezvose, Thailand 'iri pano uye zvishoma uko,' ndakazviseka makore makumi maviri apfuura semutungamiri wevashanyi muNyika Yekusingaperi Smile. Sezviri pachena mufaro wakadaro chikamu chekubata nevashanyi, ndinoona zvakare kubva kuna Michiel. Tiri munzira, semuenzaniso, tinoimba yekuzvarwa mukadzi wechiRungu muboka…

Yakanyanya kukosha panguva yerwendo inzvimbo yekudyara mhiri kweChao Phraya, rwizi rukuru runoyerera nemuBangkok. Munzira nhete dzinenge 1,40m yakafara tinotenderera musango remiti nemiti. Haungati mamiriyoni evanhu anogara pedyo zvakadaro.

Mune e-mail ndisati ndasimuka kuenda kuBangkok zvinoita sekuti Hoes haana kunyora izwi zvakanyanya: 'Zvingava zvakanaka kukurega uchisangana neBangkok nenzira yakasiyana zvachose kupfuura yaungadai wakaita neimwe nzira.' Uye zvechokwadi, zvinoshamisa.
