It’s a fetish all over the world. I recall reading a book, (I believe it was the Mig Pilot who defected from the old Soviet Union to Japan) where some military commander painted grass green prior to being inspected by some high ranking party member.

I have read this also happens in other places (painting the grass green), but I can’t remember where now.
