On the products within the jdm market. If you look at the back of say a wheel. It will usually say. "Made in japan" Why the hell are they going to stamp that in english instead of japanese. If someone can give me a good answer for that then I will give you milk and cookies.

Because there's a law that requires imported goods to be marked with the country of their origin?

Because the Japanese can read in about three languages...

cootees

So you're saying english is the preffered language in japan?

soulDistortion

If it has "Made In Japan" stamped on it, that just means that it's a product that's slated to be used in more than just the Japanese market.

None of the stuff I have from Japan that was meant to be sold only in Japan has any english stampings on it. Engrish stickers and whatnot on the box maybe, but that's about it.

I say because english is morelikely the universal language...

Phade

Specifically, it is called the lingua franca.
