Public Toilets: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly

Today is World Toilet Day, so naturally, we're diving right into the topic of toilets. Now, Malaysia has made some progress in improving the state of our public toilets, with the introduction of the 'Toilet of The Year Awards' and more inspections of Klang Valley toilets. But we're a far way away from shedding our reputation of having bad toilets, with slippery floors, lack of amenities like toilet paper and inconsistent cleaning schedules being brought up often. So we hear from our listeners on their picks of the the best and worst public toilets they have experienced, as well as their biggest pet peeves about Malaysian public toilets.
