Miss Linda   : Excuse me, sir.

Mr Munny    : Yes, what’s the matter?

Miss L          : I was wondering if you could help me.

Mr M           : Well, I’ll try to do.

Miss L         : I need to find out where Triel pagoda is.

Mr M           : Well, you can go straight on this road and when you get to the filling station, turn right.

Miss L         : How far is it from here to the gas station?

Mr M           : It’s about more than 2 km.

Miss L         : I see, but what is this village named?

Mr M           : It’s Chomka Andoung village. You look strange, where do you come from?

Mr M           : Ok, please.

Miss L         : How far is Triel pagoda from the filling station?
