The only Muslim-Syrian-Christian here, PLEASE respond at the earliest.

... And Thomas you are allowed a bathroom break in a regular toilet, after you are done responding on this topic.

you have to be a moron to compare the unavailability of toilets and open defecation in bangladesh with similar statistics for india, to make bangladesh look bad in relation to india.

in other words, FAIL!

here are the approximate statistics (number of people to whom toilets are unavailable, % of population to which toilets are unavailable):

bangladesh: (11 million, 7%);

india: (683 million, 53%)

look them up here:

www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-11-19/un-s-challenge-the-638-million-in-india-who-go-outdoors

excerpts:

[size=63]"On a planet where one in three don’t have access to proper sanitation, toilets are out of reach for 53 percent of India’s 1.2 billion residents left with little choice but to go outdoors, according to UNICEF."[/size]

[size=63]"While more than half of India’s people go to the toilet outdoors, in Bangladesh and Brazil only 7 percent do. That figure is 4 percent in China, Unicef data shows."[/size]

Ha ha ha, Ammachi! Still having reading comprehension issues I see. The article was not about the availability of toilets to the population in general, but the availability of public toilets in Bangladesh.

PS: Still not tech savvy enough to figure out how to hide the tags, I see.
