Via Cruel: "Some Malaysian colleges may soon offer courses on how to keep public restrooms clean, the national news agency reported Thursday.

"The effort is meant to help Malaysia's public lavatories become as hygienic as those in countries such as Britain and Singapore, Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Robert Lau was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.

"'Clean toilets cannot merely be judged by the eyes,' Lau was quoted as saying. 'This matter also involves the use of cleaning equipment, soap, fragrances and proper tissues.'

"Courses would involve managing washrooms by the highest standards in design and sanitation technology, said Lau."
