This is Budai (or Hotei in Japanese), the Laughing Buddha, also known as the Happy -or Fat Buddha. Supposedly the next Buddha after Gautama Buddha (the one who gained his enlightenment after 49 days under a Bodhi (‘Enlightenment’) tree, after which he became ‘Buddha’ (‘Enlightened One’)).
Budai is incorporated in the Shinto, Taoist and Buddhist culture and is a god of happiness and plenty.
