The Chinese capital, notorious for its smelly lavatories, will show off its ambitious plan to improve them during the fourth annual World Toilet Summit later this month, the Beijing government said Friday.
"Toilets represent a country's level of development, it reflects a place's level of material and spiritual civilisation," Yu Debin, deputy director of the Beijing Tourism Bureau, told a press conference.
Beijing has already invested more than 200 million yuan (24 million dollars) since 2001 on upgrading and building more than 700 new public toilets to prepare for the 2008 Olympic Games, he said.
"The toilet problem at many scenic spots is a major concern both at home and overseas and is a main focus of complaints," Yu said.

This year's executive model.
a chinese friend of mine shared with me a chinese news article -- he translated it to me. a canadian tourist on a bus tour of china, went to squat in what is literally a "sh!t room". it was late at night and of course, no toilet paper and no lights. he left his in his suitcase on the bus. not wanting to make others wait, he decided to use some of the blank pages at the back his passport, some of which are stamped with entry/exit stamps.
the next day at the airport, the poor guy found out that he used the FRONT pages of his passport and was not allowed on the flight. he had to hire a car and driver, go back to the sh!t house, search through all the crap to find his missing passport pages. uuuggghhhh!
