Glico man is that running guy lah... Glico...@foong,<br />Glico man is that running guy lah... Glico Man was originally installed in 1935 and is a symbol of Glico candy.<br /><br />and the clown is a famous landmark at Dotonbori in Osaka, just like Glico Man. He is the kuidaore taro - and was installed in 1950. Every March the visiting rikishi for the Osaka Grand Sumo tournament used to line up with Kuidaore Taro for photos.<br /><br />That God? Didnt know what it supposed to do mah... so just look at people lining up taking videos and photos of it. Maybe next time lah... ^^<br /><br />Yes. Yes. Osaka is a fun place to go lepak. Its vibrant and colourful. :)linahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17273605189937933589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664130016930236672.post-50007859854683285002011-06-14T20:49:14.310+08:002011-06-14T20:49:14.310+08:00Osaka sure looks like a nice place to lepak : )Osaka sure looks like a nice place to lepak : )foongpchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592884550810521137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664130016930236672.post-36339644993500969502011-06-14T20:48:00.806+08:002011-06-14T20:48:00.806+08:00Oh so funny that God moving his jaws up and down? ...Oh so funny that God moving his jaws up and down?

She told me that the design of Yakult bottles in Japan can't be used in Malaysia because another company had applied trademark for the design. And interestingly, seems like different countries adopt a design that may look slightly different from the ones in Japan.linahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17273605189937933589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664130016930236672.post-60955118834553563192011-06-12T17:45:02.021+08:002011-06-12T17:45:02.021+08:00@birdmini,
