An 84-year-old man from Kota Bharu, Kelantan was sick and tired of dirty public restrooms… So, what did he do?
He decided to build a lavish public toilet that costs him RM10,000!

Featuring a gold-theme, the toilet is also furnished with an air-conditioner, water heater, a dressing table, television and a hot water dispenser for those who need a caffeine fix!
Surely, this is a rare thing to find in a typical Malaysian public bathroom.
The man, who also owns a petrol station nearby, constructed the restroom for the public to use for free! Although people think it was odd for the businessman to build a modern and lavish toilet, Ahmad did not let the critics stop him from doing his part to serve his community!

According to Malay Mail, anyone passing through Melor town, where the bathroom is located, can use the water heater to shower and freshen up.
Ahmad hopes that the new public toilet will change people’s perceptions about public toilets and that people are aware of their role in keeping the facilities clean.
Thank you, Pak Cik Ahmad! Such a lovely thing to do for his community!
