Rong Arm of the Raw

One thing you see all over Beijing, especially in restaurants and other public places, is this happy little fellow.

I asked what this meant and was told that it’s a reminder to watch your belongings, and to ensure that when you leave you always take everything with you.  I thought it would be a hell of a lot funnier if it was something like this.

Hi, I’m Petey the Policeman, here to remind you that we are always watching you.  There’s always one more bed available at the labor camp.  And remember, I love you!
