A 10m tall rubber duck has been sighted on the waterways of Osaka.
The prosaically named Suito Osaka Rubber Duck Project, designed by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, has seen a 9.5m tall by 11m long rubber duck statue floated on the city’s waterways, for no particular reason. The duck has previously menaced other cities, but this is its first appearance in Japan.

The Dutch seem to have a problem with giant rubber duck overpopulation.
xD Apparently so.
I dare him to float that in the Philippines' Pasig river
Heaven's no. He'll get dirty.
More an issue of that country being the place where it respawns after having been killed. That throws off the numbers. :P
Hello, my friend.
It's not Dutch. It's Belgian. Belgian Dutch speaking side that is. Also called Flanders.
It was that same part of the world that refused to form a government and crippled the country for over 900days! thanks to 30% of the Flemish who voted for the NVA, which is a right-wing separatist party.
Quack.
