The first United Buddy Bears exhibition was held in Berlin in 2002 and has traveled from continents to continents. They are now in Malaysia; from 8/12/11-15/2/12 outside Pavilion KL! There are 143 life sized painted fibre-glass bears of 2m tall. Each buddy bear with own designs was created by artists on behalf of their native countries. As you can see, the Bears are standing hand in hand to symbolize the vision if a peaceful world in the future. I found the designs interesting and had spent quite some time appreciating them. Have you? =) It's worthwhile to drop by and have a look.
