Current Event #9

The six-story rubber duck created by a famous Dutch artist is afloat in Hong Kong's Victoria Harbor. The large inflatable is meant to symbolize unity. The artist says that the rubber duck symbolizes unity because the world is one big bath tub.  Also, he said, "the Rubber Duck knows no frontiers, it doesn’t discriminate people and doesn’t have a political connotation.The friendly, floating Rubber Duck has healing properties"

The boats in the harbor might have to a little more navigating but it's worth it. The boring city atmosphere now has something worth looking at. The inflatable's size makes the boats around it look tiny. 

I think the rubber duck is very cool and I like how it isn't a political or economic motivated thing. The fact that it's just there for the sake of being there is great and more countries should do this, too.
