And if you as businessman in Japan or businesswoman want to provide an extra policy for yourself or company, kind of social responsible company or social responsible policy, those business cards are perfect for you, because you show that you care. Because when you hand over your business card, you prove that you are protecting the forest, protecting people’s livelihood, you are helping solving poverty, you take responsibility. So when you hand over our business card, and you have normal paper, average paper from tree somewhere, it might be from a deforested area. It might be from a rain forested in Southeast Asia. It might be from a place where small children have worked long hours in dirty factories. So is that good for you symbolically? In Japanese you say KOTOSAMA, it is like words, what you are doing, has a special soul. So you are a kind of providing an energy, positive energy or negative energy. I think those business cards made from banana paper are symbolically important, because they have soul.
