informative signs

it is a common sight in hong kong to see signs showing the exact fine for each minor infraction of municipal laws - in this case, a steep fine for spitting directly into a trash can



i like signs that are slightly cute but still convey their messages accurately - like the two above seen at a construction site in taipei


this one seen in a metropolitan taipei public park suggests that there may not be many things that you are allowed to do


the level of politeness and humble civility seen even in signs is a trait that is somewhat uniquely japanese, as evidenced by this sign in downtown tokyo

i have not been able to figure out the meaning of this sign for quite a long time now
