This is an article that I think I’ve introduced before. It’s a about the lifting of the ban on international sales of Kumamon goods, which starts tomorrow, on June 9th. I was reminded about this when I found the following Japanese announcement in an RSS feed I subscribe to:
http://www.pref.kumamoto.jp/soshiki/169/kumamon-export2.html
It’s about how to apply to use Kumomon overseas but I was completely unable to find any analogous information in English.
I happen to have a meeting with the Lieutenant Governor of Kumamoto tomorrow. The topic set last week is the prefecture’s use of the internet. I think this is another item for the agenda.
