檳榔西施

Pinang-girl  

This is an interesting collection.A local pinang-girl.

Pinang is a very special local culture in Taiwan.Lot of people here like to chaw pinang as in working,or in driving.On dit,pinang can bring energy when people attending their work.So,it also be tagged as a small gift when people conect friendship each other ,especially in some where of business.

People who chewing pinang most of live at middle or southern Taiwan.They are almost blue-collar workers.But they were most important power  to get  Taiwan to be a boomy and forward-looking country.They address  to their task ,they believe that pinang can help their energy to the work.Because they liked and needed pinang ,so more and more pinang-stores appeared in Taiwan.I don't know why,but those stores became a kind of interesting local culture what young gils who dressed in very very few to sale pinang.We call them "檳榔西施(Pinang-Shi-Shih)".
