A Short Walk To Yu Feng Shang Chang πŸͺ Clevia, Suriname

A total lockdown earlier this week caught us off-guard, so we decided to walk to the neighborhood Chinese store and replenish our food stocks. 

___

## **Let's Hit The Road πŸ›£οΈ**

<center>![IMG_3315.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/243qGzvF2BK9s3W21Cijq2Ru4rAXxdXWfWBiurT1sipZDYK131HueTXY2QaTyb1YMGCy6.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Our oldest daughter Srey-Yuu decided to opt out of this trip, but I snapped a few pics of Sreypov and Monkey-B walking along the alley that leads to our apartment.

<center>![IMG_3318.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23w2sRMZCoDgR6rxTXViL4Fz8bLMmpFcQsvG94LHQdvhBGebYz8wFVxPHqfRnNPNKZ4j9.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Along the way we passed the abandoned lot that seems to serve as a dumping ground despite the fact there is a garbage truck that serves this area. We've been puzzled about the liquid contents of the large plastic bottle you can see laying on the coconut fronds. 

<center>![IMG_3335.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23z7BUtUuTypeDB3v53aNemFRGz4pa9DvPedWpbJvHgTjUZrCdvBpoogf2kzWAcT3sf7K.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Our neighborhood only has two markets that sell fruits and vegetables, and they are each less than a kilometer from our apartment. Due to a flat bike tire, we've been walking lately, but it's been a good opportunity to take some photos of a commute we make day in and day out.

<center>![IMG_3320.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23xp8qU3LNaHYmBBmgedHnWQfUxf9f7PFSVJ6Y7zduLpbWJUcNtHCPq87yN7dnafBFtDp.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The first store is only 200 or 300 meters from our apartment, but has no veggies, and mostly sells liquor and lottery tickets. Before the 6pm curfew which we've lived under for nearly a year and a half, this place hosted many fights between Guyanese prostitutes and their "Johns."

<center>![IMG_3321.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/Epvgy6KPUym7G3PrXisukRepTq9iiPRHXdPbqHryYbHEVctNL9aBSP7MphhXHRjK4M2.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Only a stone's throw from the liquor store is a mosque, which is truly ironic, as our neighborhood is predominantly Muslim but also seems to be littered with beer cans and hard liquor bottles. Suriname is also host to many unfinished buildings, and our neighborhood is no exception.

<center>![IMG_3322.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23wMQ8Xwz6TwoqkB6RL9rnfZ9cr4813MyWu7PKyqfpfXS4DnQp6GTPixu88KZ5WsCefcf.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;As we reach Yu Feng Shang Chang, we always look to the left at a small monkey which is kept in captivity in the small shed you see in the above photo. It always stares deep into our eyes seemingly in a desperate plea for help, but Surinamers love keeping animals in captivity, and we aren't here to change the culture.

<center>![IMG_3331.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23ynLMxPc1m9nvNgYJnMfCKVwtw5hCaZVCzLsc3qes8jbypvxypQhMchWEhdLkAXvYZUZ.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Recently our biggest neighborhood store put some fresh coats of paint on the exterior, and along with that came a desire to let everyone know they have soda water and canned beans, one full of gas and the other guaranteed to make you produce your own.

<center>![IMG_3330.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23xedMj4nReM28NzSMRFeED8fkC2FM8qW8BaNLAhN2feLpAJKAdwEjceevig9PbqvVHyN.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;We finally arrive at Yu Feng Shang Chang, where we usually take a deep breath before going inside, a bit of meditative preparation for what we know will be increased prices throughout the store, and most likely an abysmal selection of overpriced and half-rotten vegetables.

<center>![IMG_3324.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23vi21Jec6sDf9F9eQ9MV7yaxsCatHxzgr3ohHYeBibXYNk9RYjqpmAw1vNknDz4fvguh.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;This day was actually about as good as it gets, because often times there are just two or three things on the above table. The okra is always too big, full of huge seeds, and very stringy after cooking, so we never buy them. 

<center>![IMG_3325.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23xp6Q93UPdF3Fg61WGZNuZExbHytnt1j6pufNMj7kyEdMR1V9BwBXhU9EciLq289y82c.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The longbeans are always wilted, the cucumbers yellow, the capsicums overpriced, and this usually leads to buying some bananas and brown rice, then doing some foraging. Above is Sreypov expressing her disdain for the price of a single capsicum.

<center>![IMG_3326.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23wgQ4z3sJnehr7BPApi57y16XJJUijwK6JSgxPdQVRuE8MUkpdnE9CPKL7qZe54fGv8N.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The eating habits of Suriname dictate what the markets sell, and it's a scene similar to the USA, where stores consist of 95% processed packaged foods. This is the opposite of Cambodian markets, where 90% of what is sold are fruits, herbs, meat, veggies and other fresh things.

<center>![IMG_3327.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23wCGHmzBXVY3sKeegzVympYxMwjr9er6FUYMbz8e42MGrANR1U5MsvfLbyw4QNDFardG.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Monkey-b wanted to do a style in the middle of the aisle, so I gladly obliged. She then demanded a popsicle, something I would never buy in Cambodia, but packaged foods have invaded our lives here in Suriname, especially during the food chain crisis which has been going on for several months.

<center>![IMG_3328.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23xei6zq1LEYcvVXfXbGvW1aHYcMojuD32EKa11tokgn9bX4rD1QEsvXBQajNiHoWx3FN.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;In Cambodia we'd be buying some grilled corn and a fresh-squeezed sugarcane juice, but here it's packaged bread, popsicles, and soda water.

<center>![IMG_3329.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23vsX8ECQuk2BDjm8qEM1QVPHLkahjTtCfozMUdysvB1WiLZ1nWL86f1voE5J7DAh1hLc.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Monkey-B even remembers the days when the ice box was better stocked with a wider selection of popsicles and frozen treats. Once upon a time there were even natural soursop popsicles.

<center>![IMG_3332.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/243pyvDYrhr8fcKHx5vHCxk4zDwH7AVLweBziopNNxodaG2sHnnsHGBDMYLXQjVBMDjDt.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;After buying hardly anything, we decided it was too oppressively hot for foraging, so we hit the road back to our residence. "Home" is a word I don't like to use for our apartment, because I've never felt those kind of vibes in this country.

<center>![IMG_3333.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/2423swpsyyuubrA2t57bsKPX2WNxqfKkhHgkLzCYHsS2Nm9Cbu11RnxvDqz6qGXCkcD8R.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;If we ever make it to the USA, or anywhere else on Earth but Suriname, my family now knows what a "food dessert" is. This is something my wife still has a hard time explaining on the phone to her Cambodian friends, because most Cambodians prefer to work from home over living in a bedroom community and commuting to work for a boss.

<center>![IMG_3334.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/23yd1vp7KwCjGw38NcgJb2yf7Sp5JqzB4tu68SE8fAMjSevoww7MDTAaK6c32nSswjxxK.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ever since we have lived here, we've walked and biked the streets of this country, and it seems everyone is always home at all hours of the day. You would think this would result in poverty, but every home has at least one car, multiple air conditioners, and what seems to us a very expensive lifestyle. 

<center>![IMG_3339.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/justinparke/242NoGDoDkHswK5VzZqbD49APpKKPEf1aWCRpnqxWzqHB3wxTnDfaZ2EpdNTyaVCT7qMk.JPG)</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;This is a country full of secrets, so we honestly don't know how people stay at home, don't work, but yet own a house and cars. As you can see from the photos, people stay inside their houses and fences, and are not approachable like our former of Cambodia, where people seem to find any reason not to be inside the home during the day.

This has my heart on the floor. If it weren't for you guys I never would know these parts of the world, the lifestyle, the "secrets". It's so eerie and frustrating. I wish I could get an invisible helicopter and lift you out of there to drop you back to Cambodia where you all belong.

That is too kind, hugs from all of us to you. Well, for fun I just googled for a picture of our old neighborhood market in Cambodia, and found this random lady in a town with 230,000 less people than Paramaribo selling a greater variety of produce than even the main central market at the riverside in Paramaribo. The most variety I've ever seen one individual selling here is maybe 10 different things, and we've been to markets all of this town and surrounding areas.

We long for Cambodia so much, but I fear by the time we can get back our girls will no longer be familiar with their homeland, and all of this strife just because we went abroad to get an internationally recognized legal marriage.

Urgh, that's frustrating not being able to get fruit and veg. I remember when I visited Suriname about 10 years ago, there was a big fresh market in Paramaribo near to where I was staying. It was great. I would walk there everyday past all the minibuses trying to convince me to go to French Guiana despite clearly not having a backpack on me and carrying a bag of fruit! Not sure where you are though. It does not look like the city centre.

There is still the big market in the city center, but it just the same 7 or 8 things sold by countless people. There is no more variety there than anywhere else in the country. Usually things are only a few cents cheaper there, so it only makes sense to travel there if you have a car and a big fridge, and can buy enough stuff to offset the fuel costs. 

For us, a family of 4 with a bicycle, travel to downtown and back is about a 3-hour round trip, and I'm usually so tired when I get back that I usually don't work that day, and that causes a loss of $20 or more. There are about 10 fruits here commonly sold, but all were too expensive for us to purchase, even before the economic crisis and pandemic.

We are located in the far north, a bedroom community on the riverside near where it meets the ocean water.

That is some good collection of neighborhood photographs. Never been to that place, but according to your description, it's kinda "cold" there. One thing though, I like the green there even greener than the green in Malaysia. Another thing about the Yu Feng Shang Chang, I would guess the Chinese name to be 裕丰, Yu Feng, the first letter is abundance, second letter is harvest. I don't know, I could be wrong, two Chinese characters can have thousands of combination and each combination has a different meaning. 商場 Shang Chang is a confirmed word, merchant place.

Hey, thanks my man. I just learned the (English) name of the shop I've been visiting for almost a year. It is very green here indeed, so much rain. Malaysia is one of the greenest places I have ever been too.

> he eating habits of Suriname dictate what the markets sell, and it's a scene similar to the USA, where stores consist of 95% processed packaged foods.

That is true here in Krabi as well.  I think it has a lot to do with the fact that the store can keep those bags of chips in there for months if not a year whereas the fresh produce is a gamble to have at all.   

Sad but true.  Hopefully you got something to eat in the end!

It's sad, but we often opt for foraging even when the store does have produce. This is usually because the veggies are so old and near rotten that it makes foraging seem like an easier way to get some truly fresh food.

We also have some luck occasionally when we see a farm field in the early mornings and evenings, usually Chinese-owned. If there are any workers in the field, we can often point at things and they will pick it for us, and the prices are cheaper than the market.

It seems like this lock down issue has started surfacing again. I thought covid 19 is getting off the hook and people are begin in to move freely, but heck, seems like it is rising now. Or has it been like that at your end since?
Meanwhile, those are nice photos to feed my eyes.

Suriname hasn't managed COVID-19 very well. The curfews and lockdowns caused people to crowd into the shops in the short amount of time allowed for shopping. This led to outbreaks, and now it's on my street. Two next-door neighbors are infected, and across the street two people died from the Delta variant.

Now when we go to the Chinese corner shop, we realize those bumping shoulders could very well be infected.
