wtf Hong Kong?




Two Nazi-like swastikas are seen on the chest of Japanese robot-like "Robowaru" in this picture taken on Wednesday, April 30, 2003. A figurine of the "Robocon" character is being sold as part of a Coca-Cola promotion in Hong Kong. A rabbi from a Hong Kong synagogue says the toy is unacceptable and stores should stop selling them.

Here's something else:





Swastikas and othe Nazi symbols are used as decoration in a Hong Kong clothing store, as seen on Saturday, Aug. 9, 2003. Israeli and German diplomats have lashed out at a Hong Kong fashion company for using swastikas and other Nazi symbols. The Hong Kong-based firm designed a range of T-shirts and pants with Nazi symbols and launched new decorations this past week in its 14 stores. One branch projected Nazi propaganda films on the shop's wall


On August 12, the Izzue clothing store chain announced that it had removed all Nazi-themed clothing and decorations from its stores following an international outcry.
