Dirty Toilets Turn Off Tourists

Malaysia is a beautiful country with much flora and fauna to be enjoyed. Much of Malaysia's natural beauty has not yet been exploited for commercial purposes. So it shouldn't be difficult for Malaysia to attract tourists to come and enjoy the natural beauty of Malaysia.

But sadly, there are some unsanitary aspects of Malaysia that may turn away many tourists namely dirty toilets and dirty food stalls.

I think that not only the dirty food stalls and dirty toilets that would turn away tourists but also the recent tragedy at Cameron Highlands would also make tourists think twice about coming to Malaysia.

The tourism minister Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen has his hands full to reassure tourists and Malaysians that such a tragedy will not be repeated.

Dirty toilets and dirty food stalls may be just disgusting but the possibility of losing one's life when spending a holiday in Malaysia, I think, is a much pressing problem.

I myself won't be traveling on any tour bus anytime soon. And I would definitely not recommend that means of travel to any of my friends or family.

Dirty toilets and dirty food stalls have to be addressed but the safety of tourists should be of utmost importance.

  1. Yes.... Dirty toilets still remained dirty because of the bad attitudes of users. Malaysia should use Singapore as a good example and enforce fines to bad users.
