I can't remember - is it OK to flush toilet paper down the loo in Indonesia, or not? I know it isn't in many Central and south American countries, but I'm not sure about SE Asia.

Depends. In the newer buildings: certainly. In the older ones: yes, as long as the landlord has a sense of humour.

Okay, I'll bite:

Why have you posted the same question on at least eight (8!!) different forums?

Perhaps the OP has a fascination with the excremental.

Oh, Papua. Crying or Very sad

Picky, picky. Your students must recoil in horror when you point out errors in their writing.

Henry - all I can say is...it's business!
Pap - my most humble apologies for mistypying the capitalisation of the 's' in South. I don't know how I can show my face again in public.

Henry, you inspire me.

I interpret this 'toilet' posting as route 67's attempt to tell everyone on here that he has been to many countries.

Cool!

Hey, do people have heads in Indonesia? People have heads in Thailand, Cambodia, Korea, China, Japan...bla bla...I was just wondering.

what???.........what does that mean?
i would love, if for no other reason than the entertainment it would provide, for you to explain in more detail the "business" it is of yours to ask multiple forums on the correctness of flushing toilet paper. i agree with t.p. on his assumption of your reasons for doing so but i would love to see you try to explain yourself further......PLEASE!!!!!!

Guys (and gals), I'd love to elaborate more, but then someone might pinch the idea I've had. You see the dilemma I face? It's nothing to do with where I've been, rather where I'll be exporting stuff to. I promise I'll remember you all when I'm a squillionaire...

Hmm. So are you a sh1t magnet or a sh1t magnate?

I suspect that the truth in this case, as it is so often in life, is somewhere between the two. Laughing

Our friend "route67" is evidently writing a guidebook to the world's toilet practices. Let us hope he makes a "tidy" sum and "wipes up" the competition.
