    You genuinely think a person would forgo a functional (let’s take udon’s word for it - world class) toilet to break into someone’s house in a foreign country just to use their bathroom? That doesn’t seem like a stretch to you?

      Like I said, if they’re accustomed to bad infrastructure, why would they expect it elsewhere?

      Besides that, tourists often travel in group. Even the best infrastructure can’t accommodate a large bus of tourists are once. I’ve been to Japan, the more touristy places actually have signs specifically addressing the Chinese on what not to do, so it does point at it being a larger problem there.

        Being accustomed to bad infrastructure means they instinctually wouldn’t use good infrastructure if it’s right in front of them? That’s an interesting assumption to make of those of lesser means.

        Yes, I can see that being a problem. But it comes back to Japanese infrastructure not having adequate capacity so I’m glad they’re doing the responsible thing by shutting it down. Hopefully they can come up with a solution so that Japanese businesses that rely on a spike in revenue during this festival don’t get hit too hard.
