Malaysia Public Toilet manage by Professional and Toilet Tour

Written by Robert Gan

“The Housing and Local Government Ministry might make it compulsory for all food outlets to get their maintenance staff trained by recognized institutions to upkeep facilities. Minister Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan said some smaller outlets such as coffee shops or rural hawker centres might face problems maintaining their toilets”…………..

Anyway, I don’t think is too far fetch and it might be applicable. I in fact have experience and encounter a Professional Toilet “JAGA”. I was not only totally shock but am amaze with his hospitality and manner.

Before we go into Malaysia Professional “JAGA”. We will dwell into our Public Toilet. Public toilet can be categorized into a 2 section dirty or clean toilet. In Malaysia and some other countries, you can use this facility FREE or a minimal fee for a Jaga (maintenance) to keep it clean. This fee only reassures you that this particular toilet is clean; this does not included tissue or other toiletry.

Now, let me takes you on a tour to some public toilet (restrooms) within Malaysia Golden Triangle, Shopping Complexes, Highways and Kopitiam.

Majority of office block have LOCK toilet. Permission require from Owner or Tenant of the building. Don’t try your luck there if you have “Urgent Business.”

The best Toilet system that I ever encounter and is FREE is the toll infested PLUS Highway and some others toll infested name highways. I would assume that the management of these highways has gone into great lengths to ensure toll payers will not complaint about their high toll rates. Their “Jaga” are not only felt to be there but but they were seen to be there, even though sometimes they were at the wrong rooms and at the wrong time. (You know what I mean, Male /Female)

Now to this Old Fashion Kopitiam and those fusion kopitiam: - 95% is dirty, FREE and will be accompanying with worm, while you do your business. The other 5% will require you to be interview before entry is permitted because this toilet is LOCK and exclusive (Only 4 Customer.)

Public Area and Parks: - Roadside: -NONE available, Public Parks: - few and hidden but without utilities bowl (stolen) and water, you can relieve wherever you find a vacant spot.

All Petrol Stations: - 100% free, 95% dirty cum with grease and 5% clean. Reason being is Self Service.

Hotel:-majority of the hotels have restroom located in the lounge and most are FREE and accessible except for some which are located in busy shopping area (E.g. the one stay by the infamous Altantuya in Petaling Street.) This hotel will require user to be interview as they are LOCK.

Shopping Complexes
: - 50% is NOT FREE. Most Complexes have cost rating for per entry (20 cents, 50 cents and this do not include. tissue only free shooting and hands cleaning.) The latest I have encounter cost five (5) dollars Ringgit Malaysia at GARDEN.

Consolation: - All toilets in Mid Valley, One Utama, IKEA and Curve are free and clean. The best and most innovative is at Goldhill in Bukit Bintang.

OK, no more talk cock as if you don’t know where to find the best toilet in Malaysia.

In regard to having toilet maintenance staff trained by recognized institution as suggested by Minister Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan. Maybe Mr. Ong has the experience of the RM 5 a shot at the Garden. And from there he innovate it.

Like me tell you about the 5 ringgit a shot in Garden.

I was curious and wonder why it costs 5 ringgit just to pee or even to shit.
So, I walk toward this well dress man (bow tie, white long selvees and black pant) behind a counter right between the toilet entrances. I enquire why it costs 5rm just to use the toilet. He said politely with proper English.

Sir. This is a Premier Class Toilet. Now this toilet comes with special hand cream, hand towel, triple layer tissue and sweet fragrance smell.

I smile and said, well other toilet, do have that too, like Goldhill. And is FREE!

But Sir, he said, I will also gives you free voucher worth Rm 5 for your purchase on selected store within the complex. So is FREE. Come on in, Try it out.

Wow…that what I call selling.

I was taken a back, shock and stunt. Isn’t this an interesting concept, if you do really shop in the selected store, you will get a free pee and shit in a clean and fragrance environment. Your RM5 will be reimbursing through your purchase.

Guess their motto is “pee or shit b4 u shop”

Anyway, I didn’t take his offer. I went over to Mid Valley which is free and no sale gimmick.

So,you see Datuk Ong Ka Chuan suggestion might be feasible or even viable to be a self employ businessman.
Some of you might find it hilarious when he bought this issue up. Think about it.
Datuk Ong is finding a solution to get those illegal out of the country and creating a business opportunity.

Killing two birds with one stone.

No more INDONS, NEPALI women running around swiping their mop between our legs while concentrating on doing our business. Instead we will have well manner personnel look after our welfare or maybe keeps us up to date on the stock market or football result. And is FREE.

The Catch is that you MUST MAKE A PURCHASE, so that your Pee and shit will be dispose of FOC.

So establishing an Institutions and getting certification is not entirely bad idea.
Maybe we Netizen should support his proposal

So you Against or With Datuk Ong Ka Chuan?
