Can hotel toilet paper be used?

In fact, the soft hose in the bathroom in Thailand is a cleaning tool, not toilet paper. In fact, local residents in Thailand rarely use toilet paper. Different countries have different habits. In relatively simple countries such as Thailand, they don't use toilet paper or paper towels. They all choose to clean directly with toilet paper. On the one hand, it saves expensive paper towels, on the other hand, it also considers environmental protection issues. After all, water can be recycled, but paper towels are not.

First, the hose in the toilet in Thailand is actually a cleaning tool after going to the toilet.

In fact, it is not a big deal that there are soft pipes in toilets in Thailand. In some backward countries, this special water pipe will also appear, which is mainly used for cleaning. In Thailand, a relatively backward country, local people don't carry paper towels everywhere like people in China. They choose to rinse directly with water after going to the toilet. Considering hygiene and convenience, the local toilets will be directly cleaned by installing soft water pipes with water temperature, which saves the trouble of using paper towels.

For Thai people, this kind of hose cleaning is even cleaner than using toilet paper.

Second, direct cleaning is the habit of many backward countries. After all, paper towels are really expensive and wasteful.

Countries that install cleaning hoses are generally backward, after all, paper towels are very expensive items for them. Although Thailand's tourism industry is very developed, the local area is still relatively poor. In order to reduce daily expenses, the local area does not use paper towels, which is expensive and wasteful. When you go to the toilet, you will flush it directly with water. Imagine from another angle that local life itself is not rich, and you have to spend money on paper towels. Considering that basically no one wants to buy it, you choose to install the sprinkler for health and life.

Maybe we will wonder why some hotels in Thailand have sprinklers and toilet paper. This is because there are too many tourists who are not used to sprinklers and have to provide them.

Hoses in toilets in Thailand are mainly cleaned after going to the toilet, but they can also be used to wash feet when necessary.
