In Malaysia, a celebration of 2010 World Toilet Day ended with cash prizes being awarded for 7% of the 5,700 public toilets (schools, shopping malls, restaurants, etc.) which had been inspected by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government and earned the maximum 5-star rating. The official noted that more than 51% of the toilets inspected had received only one or two stars.

Famous quotes containing the words ongoing and/or efforts:
“When one of us dies of cancer, loses her mind, or commits suicide, we must not blame her for her inability to survive an ongoing political mechanism bent on the destruction of that human being. Sanity remains defined simply by the ability to cope with insane conditions.”
—Ana Castillo (b. 1953)
“Mistakes, scandals, and failures no longer signal catastrophe. The crucial thing is that they be made credible, and that the public be made aware of the efforts being expended in that direction. The “marketing” immunity of governments is similar to that of the major brands of washing powder.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
