for everyone who has poked fun, been annoyed, frustrated etc… with anything written in English now’s your chance to take it up with the city of taipei. get your cameras out!

there is a competition to find spelling errors on street signs.
Here’s the link if you want to check it out:
english.taipei.gov.tw/TCG/index. … ordid=2069

I have some awesome pictures of the garbled english signs in the mrt station during SARS… wonder if they’ll take older mistakes…
