One of the solutions for public urination.

Let's continue the discussion of public urination.

After I told my dad about the scene of people urinate in public, my dad said some men at certain age will have problem controlling their bladder. As [SK] commented in my last post, sometimes the force of nature call can be too strong to reject. Hence the act of public urination is unavoidable. This came a realisation to me. Most of the time, even a small matter can have many speculation from different view. I guess no one will choose to urinate in public if they are not force to.

This problem can actually be solved by having more mobile toilet.

 The photo above is mobile toilet in Taiwan. It is a good way to overcome the problem of public urination. Seems like we have to accept the fact that middle age men in Miri is increasing and the problem of public urination is become more obvious. I believe that there is always have people urinate publicly since years ago. It is just that it is not as obvious as now, because Miri was not as developed as now. There were more trees and bush around the town before it is a city. Mobile toilet is more financially wise and it is be located anywhere. Hence we really need mobile toilet!

However will mobile toilet be appreciated by public? Are we able to keep it as clean as possible? hmnnn...... If we still want to see people urinate in public, we can continue vandalise our public toilet. Here is an interest post about vandalism of an office's toilet.

Is urination in public a new trend?

Yesterday evening, I went for a walk on a hill. That hill is actually an old road and not longer use as main road. So it is tar road with bush and trees along the road, with good view of sea, however recently the scenery is covered with big houses.

When I was walking, suddenly an old man in 50s, around 50 meters in front of me suddenly stop and facing bush. I think he was peeing. It is obvious because after he finished his business, he adjusted his pants. Maybe the uncle thought no one can see his 'elephant' because it is small he is facing the bush, that was why he urinated so boldly in front of so many people.

Few days ago, my friend just told me that there are many people urinate in public recently. I never saw anyone urinate public before, And I get to witness public urination on Thursday. It can be a trend...

OK! Let's divert the attention to ME.

In 2007, when our crew was setting up our basecamp, at Gemsa, Red Sea, Egypt, the toilet was not set up yet. As ladies, we can't just squat and pee in an open space.

Hence we need a big cardboard to cover our action. Below is the photo of my friend carrying the cardboard. It can also used as sun shield.

Then we chose a location, where not easy to be detected from high. Just in case someone look down from the hill. So we decided this corner is the best. Learned from the cat, cover your own shit.

What a nice scene... But beware of human waste!
