Just one of those cultural differences we celebrate because it makes humanity so richly vibrant.
(I got the traditional liberal indoctrination in college just like everyone else, ok?)

Ha ha.
A century and a half ago, pigs used to run through the streets of New York amid piles of horse manure. And we still have plenty of homeless people who think nothing of pooping in the streets of major cities. How many homeless people are in a place like Mumbai? Certainly not an opportunity to "celebrate cultural differences", but sneering at it serves no useful purpose either apart from illustrating how good we have it here now. Either way it's India's problem, not ours.

In germany a wall with water running down it into a trough is a urinal.
In the middle east arab nations such a water wall is where islamakazis wash up before they enter a mosque.
Fastest mile I ever ran after I made that mistake in saudi arabia.
Piss on em

I love living in Asia, I'm in transition to get moved (following my job) to India, but this aspect of Asian culture I can really do without.
Tsukuba Japan was the first place I had ever seen someone (a woman) squat over a sidewalk and take a dump.
Tokyo Japan was the first place I had ever seen a man in a business suit stand up alongside a temple (jinja) wall and pee on it.
Let's not talk about what central Tokyo train stations look like midnightish on Friday and Saturday nights when University is in session.
Sadly, there doesn't appear to be much I can do to persuade Mrs. Altair from hawking and spitting on the sidewalk.
I suppose if you don't like that kind of stuff, you can move to Singapore.
I've stepped in enough chewing gum carelessly discarded on US pavement to know that things aren't really any better in the US. Oh and on the last (and final) time I walked through the Hollywood & Vine intersection, it smelled like urine - almost as bad as how Manhattan smelled.
