I found Singapore to have the most creative, interesting ads out of all the cities.
Granted, I don’t read Chinese so I cannot judge China fairly, but even so.. 🙂
It is definitely a city of fines and prohibited actions.
That said, I appreciate that. I like knowing I am in a cleaner place BECAUSE of $300 fines for littering.
Marketing builds brand name recognition or product recall with a company.
Here’s the thing – I live in Singapore but I must have walked past those signs a hundred times and not noticed them. It’s only when people not from an ASEAN country visit Singapore and documents all these things that I notice them. I have not personally seen the No Durian sign! Except when people post them on their blogs. Did you notice that the “No Durian” sign has no fine amount under it? Perhaps the worst that happens is a very condescending and disapproving look from the police officer. I have NOT seen treasures in heaven. That’s hilarious! Where did you see the sign?
Durian really is smelly. I think it tastes like someone put a banana and an onion in a blender. Seems really popular in Asia though, so it must be an acquired taste.
I’m a big ribena fan and I had no idea other flavours besides black current even existed. Guess that is the cost of living in a Caribbean Country.
Just thought I would add I really enjoyed of all your pictures from the trips
I love the art in the subway stations! I think most people think of subway stations as gross, so it’s nice to see pretty ones for a change!
Durians are one of the smelliest fruits ( and things) alive, which is probably why they don’t want it on trains. although it’s still hilarious that they single this one food out.
