Young men playing their version of hacky-sack except with a woven plastic ball. We’ve seen it around in many places so it must be a thing.
There’s a formal kick-ball/volleyball-like game they play called chin lone in Myanmar and sepak takaraw in other places in SE Asia, that uses this kind of ball only made of rattan instead of plastic. Maybe this ball was rattan and not plastic! The internet told me. Maybe they were practicing.
