The envoys, chosen for the clothes they choose to wear in their everyday lives, said they believed their styles would last.

"I think I can continue to dress like this all my life. Age has nothing to do with it." Actress Shizuka Fujioka, 19, wears a school uniform even though she's graduated because she felt she missed out by going to a school with an ugly uniform. The appointment of the three envoys comes a year after Doraemon, a rotund blue cartoon cat with no ears, was named a special ambassador. While serving as foreign minister, manga fan Prime Minister Taro Aso also launched an international prize for the genre. "Whether this is a strategy on which the world's second largest economy can base its diplomacy, I have yet to be convinced," said Temple University's Deans. Agencies |
