Ishtiaque Nahid, Head of HR Md. Abu Sayeed, and other senior officials of the organisation, said a press release.
“There is a wrong mentality amongst us about toilets that the responsibility of cleaning toilets falls only on women. We don’t talk about these things often. I thank Quazi Enterprises Ltd., and its brand Harpoon for this initiative” said EkusheyPadak and National Film Award-winning actress, Dilara Zaman. Habibul Bashar expressed the hope that “This educative campaign organized by Harpoon Toilet Cleaner, would have some impact on our lives.” Mehreen Mahmud stated, “It is a big challenge to use clean and hygienic toilets. It is undoubtedly a good and educative initiative”.
The participants talked about the bad habits and mindsets we have about toilets e.g., entering the toilet with dirty shoes, leaving unwanted things in the commode, spitting on the wall, writing illicit words, or relying only on women when it comes to cleaning toilets. These perceptions are noticeable at all levels of society. As a result, access to hygienic toilets has become the biggest challenge. However, with the united efforts of all, it is possible to stop such wrong mindsets from society.
Thus, on the occasion of World Toilet Day, Harpoon Liquid Toilet Cleaner took the initiative to end such misplaced perceptions regarding the use of toilets.
