popular. President "Bush" concluded " I will make a statement in front of Daiwa House tomorrow."

When I drove to a shopping center in New England yesterday, I found the propotion of white cars is not big, about 10%.
In Japan somehow their cars should be in White Color and the propotion is more than 50%.
I heard some one from the car industry, painting process to white is cheapest.
NYPD did all their police cars in white was from the same reason.

In Europe there are vareities of colors of the cars. It is enjoyable.

Why are the cars in Japan in white?

I do not know the real reason. It should be their taste.
The other day I attended a funeral at a country side. People gathered by black, white and other quite color's cars. I found one of the reasons.

Once my younger brother tried to buy a car at Hokkaido. My mother asked him the color.
It was white. My mother persuaded him to change it in yellow.

Of couse I have disliked communists for many years.
