On Wednesday, vice mayor of Shenzhen Liu Qingsheng got serious about the city's toilets. Liu stated that Shenzhen should make the construction of public toilets a priority. He also said that the ambitious law introduced in September 2013, under which citizens can be fined 100 Yuan for peeing outside the toilet bowl in a public toilet, has yet to been enforced once. Imagine that!
An official from the Municipal Urban Management Bureau who was wondering why someone had made him come to a meeting on toilet fines, said that it is difficult to obtain evidence when trying to catch rogue pee-ers. Yes, that would be an awkward conversation for a policeman. Law enforcement officials also admitted that the law is not very important.

So the SHenzhen law enforcement officials (police?) have now openly admitted that the "law is not very important". Good to know in the future.
