    Foreign workers are cheaper...end of story.

    To hell with our own unemployed.

    These foreigners must be pretty thick though, if they can't work out how to use a damned toilet.

    Funny, but that's why I thought the CIVILISED world invented flush toilets.

    We have them at our place. No pandering

    The toe rags were breaking the toilet seats. They would stand on them frog style wd their safety boot on and rip them from the bowl.

    This went on for ages until maintenance worked out it would be more cost effective to install the stand up versions

    Animals, the lot of them

    I don't know what the answer is.....
    It seems the management have done all they can .......but in all seriousness ...what can be done ?

    I remember the very same problems at my factory 40 years ago.

    When I first went to Japan in the 70's it was impossible to find a western toilet outside of the Tokyo hotels............nobody gave me any instruction

    Remember your first experience in Philippines folks?

    I do..The soap business took some getting used to . .it resembled exfoliating soap by the time I finished with it

    She didn't see the funny side of that either, especially after just using it in the shower. Made me laugh if it didn't anybody else

    In Japan I always found the footprints on either side to be most helpful.

    At least you could squat with your feet in the general position.

    I always found my physical build and sense of balance created quite a challenge and wished there was something to hold on to and help with target control.

    Yes indeed, this hasn't been well thought through in this age of obesity.

    Goodness knows how those Sumo wrestlers coped.

    It's very rare you'll ever to find any toilet paper or any tissue in Philippines. It's always a good idea to
    permanently carry some wet wipes and/or a handy-pack of tissues in an easy to get to pocket.

    However, I'd strongly recommend to make it a priority to plan for nothing available at all and get down to the details of learning how to best use the wonderful bucket of water, the tabo and some strong motivation to succeed.

    If your very lucky you may find some soap.

    Of course, you need to learn how best to do all this whilst remaining in the squatting position and balancing yourself above the toilet.

    Do not forget to thoroughly wash your hands asap !!!!

    I always carry toilet paper.

    No swilling water around for me.

    What if you get your shreddies wet ?

    Keith installed a bidet to the toilet before I arrived here. He now doesn't want to stay in a hotel without a bidet when we went to the Philippines last November. All the hotels we stayed at has bidet!
