Trump Buddha statue sells for N58,000 in China
A Chinese online shopping platform has placed a ceramic figurine of the former President of the United States, Donald Trump on sale.
The statue which was designed with Trump’s pensive face lowered and his interlaced hands resting between his lap is to sell between 999 yuan (N58,426.89) to 3,999 yuan (N233,883) depending on the size.
The statue is said to be about 5-foot tall.
According to Global Times, the seller labelled it, “Trump, who knows Buddhism better than anyone.”
“Most people just bought it for fun,” the seller told the Global Times, adding that though he made only 100 pieces, he had received “dozens” of orders.
A buyer in Shanghai told GT that he bought the statue because he wants it to remind him of Trump.
“Trump can also be regarded as a representative of an era and extreme egoism. Now the era has passed but I want the statue to remind me: Don’t be too Trump.”
