Chinese leaders urge English on Richmond signs
really like this line of logic, instead of wasting tax payers money to regulate something thats not serious they're trying to get the businesses to voluntarily change
Quote:
Calling their effort “The Signs of Harmony Project,” the business, real estate and community representatives are promising to send someone to each business using such signs to persuade them to voluntarily include English in their signs.
The group, which includes four residents of Richmond and three from other regions of Metro Vancouver, is adamantly opposed to Richmond city regulating the language used in signs.
“When you regulate, you penalize. It is not business-friendly. It does not build harmony,” said Kenneth Tung, a former chair of the immigrant society SUCCESS who is president of an information technology company in Richmond.
