You all might be going daf.. is this. I'm afraid it really is daf...
Taiwan got a very strange toilet practice. You will see it in the public toilet and also in your hotel bathroom.
On the toilet bowl or WC, there is a sign. Could be English or Chinese telling you not to throw the toilet paper into the toilet bowl.
At first you all might think it is hand towels (Scott towels) since it cannot disintegrate on contact with water. NO. It is toilet roll paper!
You will also notice that there is a bin in the toilet cubicle if you used a public toilet. At first I was puzzled as to why it was there. Of course there is trash bag inside. You open up and see........
It is filled pangsai zhua that is used by the people before you who used the toilet cubicle. Yes, the wiped their 4ss with it and then toss it in there. EEEEEEEEEEEKK!
I asked my Taiwanese friend and they said it has something to do with the plumbing. They cannot give a reason why the plumbing for toilet bowl is the same as those used for your wash basin. So you flush toilet tissue down and if enough people use, the whole toilet bowl will clog up.
He said after so many years of Japanese colonization the sewage is not as advanced as the Japanese which can flush toilet paper down. Big mystery to him.
So their toilet auntie will clear the bag of sh1t smeared toilet papers when they clean the toilet. Your hotel when they ask you to throw into the bin, might send shivers up your spine. If you pangsai in the evening it will not be cleared until you leave the next morning for the day's activities.
So when using public toilet, throw your sh1t smeared toilet paper into the bin. In the hotel room toilet? Go to the shower use water wash backside.
