Job Fair In China
The job fair held in China earlier this year just seems to be a bit too crowded for comfort. People barely have space to move as a lot of them desperately flock to such job fairs in search of opportunities. China has the fastest growing economy but the standard living of the citizens of China is still likely to be lower than most American and European countries.

Stealth Tactics On Japanese Streets
The modern ninja against crime, these are created by fashion designer Aya Tsukioka who has conjured up some neat transforming clothes/accessories to deceive potential criminals. The vending machine and the public phone disguised is obvious while the manhole handbag is used to keep the contents of the handbag safe. I’m not sure what’s the effectiveness of these stealth tactics but something tells me the average criminal wouldn’t be that dumb to miss these though.
