Seiyu is now BHG

BHG

“Eh, what happened to Seiyu?! Why got that so obiang name BHG?! Boy Hug Girl?”

I did a little research and found out that Seiyu Japan sold Seiyu Singapore to Capitaland, who in turn sold it to the Beijing Hualian Group, a China company.

And I bet you can’t figure out what BHG actually means.

Be Here for Good things. Like WTF?

    It’s a stupid name… I think we will still stick to Seiyu’s name…
    BHG is so difficult to convey to friends. I think it might just affect their sales…

    EWWK… I thought BHG sounds like Beng, Huay, Lian … Turns out I’m about 2/3 correct….

    Seiyu (Jap Co.) not operating in Spore anymore..departmental store in Singapore sold to CapitalLand.. who in turn sells to BHG, Be Here for Good things (http://www.bhgsingapore.com.sg/).

    fyi, BHG is the sixth largest retail group in the PRC, the Beijing Hualian Group 北京华联集团
    Another China company.. from jap to china. Steady blow pi-pi!
