Due to cultural differences, the hygine standard in many Asian countries are not that acceptable to others. Take for example the spitting habit in China, the peasants who check into hotel even spit on the carpet in the hotel. While we want to be environmental friendly, hygiene should be observed. It would be good if the dispenser can be better designed ... I think. Found your site while reading my favourite topic on renewable resources.

This is an approach that could be applied to so many other examples (...how much sugar gets wasted by cafes who give you two sugar satchels and then throw them both out when you don't use them). Hopefully it will catch on. Good to see.
