Public toilets in a mess, says Chor (Where have you been Mr. Minister – Mars)


 The STAR Online (Nov 23 10)


KUALA LUMPUR: Most public toilets audited by the Local Government Department are disappointing in terms of the cleanliness level, said Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Chor Chee Heung. He said in the auditing of 5,764 public toilets conducted from March 30 to June 30, 51.6% received one or two stars while only 7% were rated five-star.

Where have you been all this while Mr. Minister – Mars??? You do not need to do any audit.  Just walk into any public toilet and you can find the answer.  Or ask any Malaysian.

May be Mr. Minister you do not do to places we Malaysians go to and probably you are using diapers or some special toilet that follow you where every you go.  I wouldn’t blame you for not using one – the public toilets SUCKS.

Datuk Chor – you are spending unnecessary tax payer money on the audit which can be used to upgrade our toilets. 

“It looks like we are still far from achieving a satisfactory level of cleanliness,” said Chor at the launch of the 2010 World Toilet Day celebration and national environmental health seminar yesterday.

You mean you only realized it NOW…. Oh my God. Our toilets have not been in satisfactory conditions for decades. That why I think you and the Ministry were living in Mars. 

2010 World Toilet Day – another month its 2011 – it will be another World  (something)  Day and the toilets will be in a mess until the next World Toilet Day … hahahahah….  May be another 10 years from now. So you will revisit these toilets then?    

Chor said local authorities must do spot checks on public eating places at least twice a year and those who fail to keep their toilets clean would be asked to shut down until they improve on hygiene.

TWICE A YEAR …wow…. So the toilets will be clean for 2 days in a year. What are local authorities be doing the rest of the year?

I presume the local authorities do not use these toilets, or have their own special toilets or they do not need to visit the toilets (big bladder.. they have Mr. Minister).  Worst case scenario they use the bushes …. Going GREEN Mr. Minister.

By the way .... I take a lot of leaks when I am in town … none of these places with dirty toilet are closed.  May be I am wrong – your definition of close means close the toilet only …RIGHT? They can still open for business.

There is no data on diseases related to dirty toilets in public eating areas but the Ministry would compile it next year, he said.
You mean another research!!!  More money spend and toilets have to remain dirty until the research finding is out?.  Then after that another research.   The dirty toilets comprises of human waste and urine.  You do not need to be an atomic scientist to know that.  Anyone knows human waste cause a whole load of health related problem.

A suggestion Mr. Minister – try having your meal close to one on these dirty toilets.  Scared of contamination RIGHT … so you still need to do research?  Just do not waste tax payers money and get the toilets cleaned.

The World Health Organisation estimated that diarrhoea killed 1.5 million children worldwide, at the rate of 4,000 children every day, and the number of deaths could be reduced by one-third, said Chor.

Read between the lines Mr. Minister … I get the picture… do you?  So you still need to do research to find out diseases related to toilets.

Of the 147 local governments, 59 (40.1%) sent responses under 11 categories – independent public toilets owned by local authorities, toilets in food outlets/restaurants, shopping malls, petrol stations, places of worship, airports, train/LRT/ERL, bus stations, recreational areas, hotels
and jetty entrances, he said.

For the first time this year, audited toilets were given star ratings and the ministry awarded the best maintained toilets cash prizes ranging from RM1,000 to RM5,000.

How about audits for … toilet seats, toilet tissue, toilet sinks, urinal bowls, toilet doors and taps … give them cash prizes ranging from RM1,00 to RM5,000.

You know something Mr. Monister … If I were you I will not give them cash…. I will GET CASH FROM THEM ….. FINE them …..

Mr. Minister you will be helping our government to generate some revenue… may be a pay increase could be on the way too for a job well done.
