    There was a Japanese who came to Nepal for the travel. On the last day while returning to Japan, he hired a taxi and told the driver to drive to the Airport. During the journey, a Honda drove past the taxi. There upon, the Japanese man leaned out of the window excitedly and yelled, “Honda, very fast! Made in Japan !!!. After a while, a Toyota speed past the taxi and again the Japanese man leaned out of the window and yelled, “Toyota, very fast! Made in Japan!” And then a Mitsubishi speed past the taxi. For the third time, the Japanese leaned out of the window and yelled, “Mitsubishi, very fast! Made in Japan!” … The driver of the taxi was a little angry, but he kept quiet. And this went on for quite a number of cars. Finally, the taxi came to the airport. The fare was 1000 Rupees. !!!
