Of course you know Uniqlo! the Japanese brand based on clean designs. Cheap in Japan, not so cheap in Europe.

Walking by a Uniqlo shop in London I had the surprise to discover a nice way to remind to those who don’t know yet the Japanese origin of the Brand.
It was for the Jump Magazin Anniversary.

Finally which branding do you prefer ? the London one ?

or the one I took hereunder in a Shinjuku Uniqlo ?

Now that China is on the news more than never before, due to the Beijing Olympic Games, a lot of people is starting to realize that chinese people is quite different from what they have been thinking… in fact, there is a new cool generation of young chinese that don’t read red books anymore…

It’s amazing the extremely fast change of mind that young chinese have done. They didn’t follow the normal timing of other societies to free their minds. A lot of young people have the same habits that europeans or americans have, but we have to keep in mind that, in these other countries the process strarted in the 50-60’s, specialy in the late 60’s, when that part of the world started to change, crossing a point of no return… But in China, they didn’t have that 60’s, they even had no 70’s, no 80’s, and only started to change in the 90’s. So, in only 10-15 years they assumed a 40-50 years period of changes happened in occident. China have also the pressure of their neighbours: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan (the coolest asian countries), who started changing at the same time as occident did (with their own particularities). My generation is different from my parents one, as they are different from my gandparents. But in the chinese case, they last this second generation, making the changes even more radical. If we think in occident that the world changed too fast lately, imagine in China!!!

You can see an example of this in this post from Alvin on his blog, alvinology, about a chinese girl posting semi-nude pics on her blog…
