Toilets in China

Before I first came to China, I have heard things like the toilets in China really stinks! You can smell a toilet miles away.. many of them doesnt even have doors!
Well, things are not as bad as I thought... in major cities and shopping malls, I consider the toilets okay... but from small eateries and restaurants, the toilets can be really dirty and smelly. You really have to stop breathing the moment you enter.. heh

Some pictures of China toilet:-
Most toilets here are of squatting type like the one in this picture. I guess it is cheaper to have a squatting toilets and the Chinese prefer to squat more than sit. I have seen squatting footprints on a sitting toilet bowl couple of times... Mmmm..
And.. do u see a bin there? Apparently, you are not suppose to throw tissue or anything into the toilet bowl as it will choke it but you got to throw them into the bin provided.
This is something new to me because back in Singapore we throw our tissue into the bowl.. i guess it should be more hygienic that way yah...
You see a lock on the toilet roll holder? The only reason i can think of is that there are people who steal toilet paper that they have to lock it? MMmmm

You see the last picture of the poster? It is taken from a above average restaurant in Guangzhou. We were laughing our heads off with my friends when we saw it... Mmmm.. funny funny..
