Jump To Comment: 2 1It didn't. There has been no sudden increase in births - no Japanese crises of neonatal care or midwifery comparable perhaps to the Irish Lourdes Hospital Drogheda case.
where did they go wrong? it's not like they had Mary Harney as minister for Health or seemed to deliberatly run their health care into the ground with some sinister policy of localised genocide aimed at the people of Meath in general or the very least the citizens of "draw-hed-da".
Possibly the Japanese went wrong on the baby thing in the same place they're going to go wrong with a new campaign to encourage Japanese people to drink milk. You know "milk" - the stuff that comes from cows which our neolithic ancestors (like Cuchulain) couldn't stomach according to the BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6397001.stm
Orientals for some reason don't really go in for milk. You will not find dairy products on the menu and even though most of our tastier lactile products originated in mid Asia (yoghurt) these inventions were quickly brought on horseback to the west. Perhaps the great wall of China kept out milk?
Anyway - take a quick peep at these two sample adverts for the latest Japanese state campaign to encourage people over there to drink (?) well at least to use milk. Be warned before hand - people of sensitive natures and european prudery might be shocked - as indeed they might have not liked the "have babies" campaign above. I'm not asking you to laugh at Japanese people, not a bit of it - they have the second largest economy in the world- the most powerful per capita - they've the highest level of consumer electronics and combined with their sino-language it is a fair presumption that if an alien civilisation ever sends us messages in any intelligible form other than mathematics (or musis) - those messages will be in either mandarin or japanese or in an artificial form comprehensible to both - yet the Japanese have the lowest rates of human and cow abductions in the developed world http://www.cowabduction.com/ http://stopabductions.org
This is a mystery to me - I lean to the much discredited theories of De Selby on the work gene. Just in case you never noticed - the capacity for hard work especially that of the physical hard labour kind is directly related to melanin. Thus it is that a young lad like Dunk can garden for hours for little monetary reward and get a decent tan - where as myself might stay with a complexion as pure as the driven snow & hands as soft as my face.
anyway -
here are 2 sample Japanese milk adverts.
http://www.mojoflix.com/Video/Weird-Japanese-Milk-Comme....html and this one is so salicious to the little house on the prarie crowd - that Youtube won't let you see it unless you log in and declare you're over 18 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gaBys-0lQk&mode=related...arch=
though in my opinion it's much less suggestive than the mojo link.
I admit to rather liking milk & if asked to promote it wouldn't consider for a moment pushing a "sexy" image for it. Thus no the psychoanalytic level if not the sociological level these adverts really are.....you make up your mind.
that the display stand was made possible by the kind sponsorship of a synthetic baby milk company whose company name you can see if you look between the young girl's legs. Don't be ashamed.
little details matter.........................no?
