Check it out Malaysians! Apparently we are dirty…
One would hope Malaysians would wash their hands regularly, but, no, a shocking 63 per of Malaysians have admitted that they do not wash their hands after using the toilet and before eating or handling food.
… but we are happy…
Malaysia ranks 44th in the Happy Planet Index, beating richer Asian countries such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea and Brunei.
So, the dirtier you are…
The survey of 1,000 Malaysians showed that 34 per cent did not wash their hands properly before eating or handling food and 29 per cent did not wash their hands after going to the toilet.
… the happier you will be…
“The nations that top the index aren’t the happiest places in the world, but those that score well show that achieving, long, happy lives without over-stretching the planet’s resources is possible,” it said.
That’s all for this week’s useless weird-but-works logic.
