Singapore Mascot
Singapore Pavilion Mascot Souvenir Design for Shanghai World Expo 2010. Drawing inspiration from Singapore's iconic Merlion and The King of Fruits, the Durian, Singapore Tourism Board conceived Liu Lian Xiao Xing as mascot. Singapore has picked an Expo mascot called Liu Lian Xiao Xing, or "Durian Star," with a spiny head resembling a durian fruit and wearing the iconic Merlion image on his clothes. Described as a curious and vigorous Singaporean boy who has a strong preference for durian, "Durian Star" will be printed on all souvenirs to be sold or given to visitors.
