Foliage Plants in Banks

Nov 13, 2015 12:10
There usually are foliage plants in Japanese banks.

In addition, almost all of the plants is 170 cm in height, and this figure is corresponding to the average height of Japanese men.

The reason for this is because you can measure the height of robbers when a bank robbery happens.

Besides, there are also some anti-crime measures, for example, there are no toilets in banks.
銀行の観葉植物

日本の銀行には、よく観葉植物が置いてあります。

しかも、その高さはほとんど170cmで、この数字はおよそ日本人男性の平均身長に相当します。

この理由は、銀行強盗に入られたときに、犯人の身長を測るためです。

その他にも、銀行にはトイレを設置していないなど、幾つかの防犯対策がとられています。

     You're right. I don't think there are toilets in U.S. banks either. I hadn't thought that it was an anti-crime measure. This is why the restrooms in the subway are often closed (to prevent terrorism).
