Apart from reminding us of common sense, I love the artwork of these posters. In Japan, it is so easy to buy a handkerchief and I bet 99,9% of every citizen has a hanky. In Sweden, I wonder where you would be able to buy one...
It may come as surprise, but I feel that the current rate of Japanese people owning handkerchiefs is low. One reason is that many store toilets in Japan are equipped with machines that spray water droplets after you wash your hands. The younger the generation, the lower the handkerchief ownership rate. I usually carry handkerchief-size hand towels instead of handkerchiefs.
I like that. Good suggestion!

ReplyDeleteIsn't it considered rude to blow your nose in Japan? Maybe that's why not everyone carries tissues or handkerchiefs.
