Press Release Body = SINGAPORE, July 19th 2006 - Who says the Japanese are serious
fellows? For the past month, website TheJapaneseAreCrazy.com (otherwise known as
J.A.C) has perked up thousands worldwide with its impressive selection of handpicked
Japanese video clips showcasing local Japanese humor, prank-comedy and talent
extravaganza.

This personal video-blog, which focuses on providing media highlight footage from
the likes of Japanese variety game shows and television, began with a private
fascination for Japanese pop media culture and its somewhat extreme style of
"reality comedy".

Good quality humor is often hard to contain. Within a month, what began as an online
portal among friends and enthusiasts, transmogrified into a ready source of Japanese
flavored entertainment with an international audience of over 200 000 and a steady
subscriber following.

Examples of J.A.C content include a Japanese man engaging his four pet goldfish in a
game of synchronized swimming (like puppets with no strings) and rather innovative
(as well as unbelievable) pranks played on the average Japanese passerby; such as an
elevating public lavatory that only has its Japanese occupant commenting: "What a
beautiful view".

Content also includes rather fascinating Japanese commercials, such as the bouncing
"Choco Party Good Good" babe, that border on queer, amusing and/or strange.

The site, at merely a month old, already attracts a daily viewership of over 10 000
and is updated with an average of five to six new videos per day. With a growing
international subscriber list of 2700, many of its subscribers log on for daily
doses of laughter and amazement.

Says Miss Kristie Chew, a fan and subscriber to the website: "I\'ve always thought
the Japanese were a bit stiff in nature. In terms of impression, this website
(www.thejapanesearecrazy.com) has caused a somewhat mini personal cultural
revolution and sparked a curious fascination for the modern Japanese. It\'s not just
all about bowing and smiles for me now."

Says J.A.C founder and Media Director, Mr. Ryan Chua: "Often, Japanese game shows
involve participants being put through incredibly bizarre situations ending up in
their utter humiliation. When I was first exposed to this side of Japanese culture I
was both shocked and inspired by how sporting the Japanese can be. It was, and still
is a huge eye-opener."

Ryan goes on to say: "With the rabid advancement of online video technology, we are
now able to quickly review, organize, detail and pass content quickly to our niche
audiences online.J.A.C started out as a hobby, but we now realize that it has
developed into a site which provides an alternative insight into Japan\'s media and
pop culture.Who would have thought that this type of site would build spontaneous
online traffic-the whole world has come to visit! But, most importantly, J.A.C is
great fun, free entertainment and loads of laughter!"
