About This Design
Singapore Singlish - Bo Jio - No Invite, No Banana Keychain
"Bo jio" literally means "no invite", and is commonly used in Singlish (Colloquial Singaporean English) meaning "Why didn't you invite me to go". It is derived from the Hokkien (a southern Fujian Chinese dialect) pronunciation of "没招". Funnily, it has the same pronunciation in Hokkien as "没蕉", where the "蕉" means "banana". In this case, "没蕉" literally means "no banana".
Therefore, this design is a pun on the words "bo jio", usually used in the context of "why never invite me go", but could also mean what has been graphically drawn - "no banana". Great as a souvenir gift from Singapore!

Beyond expectations. Choice of artwork is overwhelming, I found exactly what I needed from SJW_Graphics. Detail, colors, overall design looks great on this keyring. Could use as a pendant, purse charm, bookmark, too! Metal is sturdy without being heavy. Colors beautiful, with clear margins. Customized name makes this gift extra special. So many fonts, so many colors & sizes!
