Roadside snap in Macau. A for non Chinese readers much less confidence inspiring than intended advertising sign.
The blue Chinese text 政府註册 正版正貨 actually means: "Government registered. Genuine products.".
The large black character is the traditional style 藥, meaning "Medicine", generally used to indicate a pharmacy (药 in simplified Chinese, pronounced yào in Mandarin).
This sign is hanging on a Traditional Chinese Medicine shop in the alley that leads up to the famous Ruins of St. Pauls.
Intrinsically this sign also gives an idea how much trust exist into the veracity of products sold along tourist streets in China, Hong Kong and Macau..
