Public toilets

All this while, my opinion of free public toilets in Penang are very dirty and smelly. Unless it is unavoidable, I will never use it. But now I am beginning to think otherwise. When I say free public toilets, I mean those toilets maintain by MPPP in Government buildings and are not charged.

Look at the top photo on the left. I was pleasantly surprised when I stepped inside. The wash basins and toilet bowls were so clean and the floor so dry. This is the toilet in Kompleks Lebuh Nipah.

Kompleks Lebuh Nipah is an old food court, run and maintain by MPPP. It consist of 2 rows of food stalls, back to back. One row sells halal food while the other row sells non halal food, thus a choice of Malay, Chinese, Indian and Punjabi food here. It is located just a stone's throw from my apartment. Have my lunch there frequently but have never enter the toilet until the other day after taking lunch with my sister, Bee Bee.

Bee Bee informed me that free Government public toilets on the island are very clean nowadays. I think credit should go to MPPP. Is our sister council, MPSP also doing the same thing over on the mainland?.......I wonder.
