Rules II

Another rule I really like is the rule not to pee in public...

But I really wonder why a proportion of the Japanese male population have such
difficulty conforming to it.

A couple of months back there was a medium ranked policeman arrested for peeing on the platform of Minami Senju train station.  In Hawaii, there was a JAL co-pilot arrested, resulting in the cancellation of his flight, for the same a few weeks ago.

The other day in Yamanashi at Shosenkyo, we walked past a public toilet (ubiquitous in Japan) next to it were two old geezers - perhaps 80 - perhaps more - peeing simultaneously on the concrete next to it.... 
There was even grass nearby....
It is not the first time I have seen someone peeing with in sight of a public toilet.
I just don't get it.
Hiro thinks it's a good way to remind people Japan is part of Asia...
But to be fair to China and VN where public peeing is common place, they don't have ubiquitous public loos!!
More manji chan to enforce public peeing rules NOW!
Or at least more lemon trees....
