So sorry for unclear picture. This is the Big Issue which I talked bout on my recent posts. Can you see the White Bands around those two arms??
Yuri told me that White Band sold in Japan is different from those sold in Australia. Yea, our White Band have the print says 'MAKE POVERTY HISTORY'. Yuri said Japanese ones dont have that print on them. I think it might be because Japanese people are not used to show such slogan. The White Band which doesnt have the clear slogan on it will be more acceptable for Japanese people, I guess. Maybe easier to wear for them. Bcuz I cant imagine gals who are carryig LV bags wear the White Bands with the print 'MAKE POVERTY HISTORY'! But most of my friends are not that kind and they might not me bothered with the print, I think. They would buy the printed ones if they were in Australia.
I even think it is queer that such big number of Japanese people rush to get the White Band. Its is rare to see this kind of movement -the movement to change this world- in Japan, so I think the change of the design of the White Band was a good idea. The change may result this heated up concern with poverty.
