BURST GIANT YELLOW DUCK BACK ON SHOW IN TAIWAN

TAIPEI: A giant yellow inflatable duck, which exploded on New Year’s Eve returned to a Taiwan port on Friday after it was repaired and cleaned, organizers said. Hundreds turned out in Keelung on the north of the island to welcome back the 18-meter-tall duck following two days of maintenance after it burst and deflated into a floating yellow disc Tuesday. It was the second time that a replica of the bath toy had burst while on show in Taiwan. The duck exploded just hours before crowds gathered to count down the New Year.
