Toilet issue.

Parents will tell their kids (for girls only, guys, erm, you might not need guidance on how to pee =.=) on how to use the public toilet when they're young.
"Stand on the toilet bowl, it's very dirty one ah..."
Indeed, it IS VERY dirty, for toilet bowls in Malaysia.
WHY?
Well I guess we will have to trace this back a few decades to get the answer.

Squat toilets in Malaysia are very common, and mum always prefer us to use the squat toilet. Because, comparatively, squatting toilets are cleaner than sitting toilets.
But this is not the case in Hong Kong. At least so far, I never see any squat toilets around any public areas. And so I got used to the sitting toilets.
 And comparatively, HK toilets are much much much much cleaner than Malaysian toilets. And all HK toilets are well equipped with toilet papers.
WHY?
Who knows. But this has proven that sitting toilets (with toilet bowls) CAN be clean.

BUT.......
There's always a "but" behind all good stuff.
Some people, I never know who it is, could never know "how" to use toilets the proper way. People are just not civilized enough to use the toilet the user-friendly way.
Erm, toilet papers could be everywhere, i.e. on the floor, on the bowl...un-flushed toilets, uncleaned-after-use-toilets, and the list goes on.
[I really don't feel like contaminating my own blog, so....save the details, use your imagination]

Who can actually solve this problem?
Education maybe? Should there be like a session talking about the proper usage of toilets during Moral Education classes when we are young?
But will that really work? Since the world is moving into globalization, and different places use different types on toilets?

It just feels very )(**&%$#@$)((_"":>?"_(^# when you enter into a damn yucky toilet. How can these people just not look back at whatever private stuff or behavior they just left in the toilet for the next user to see.......

Speechless.... 


Apparently...this is a toilet house O.O
