Lack of loo paper worries residents

Toilet paper will be available at more than 100 public washrooms from next year after a survey found its absence was among the top concerns of capital residents.

The Beijing municipal administration center for parks (BMACP) said it would stock free toilet paper and hand sanitizer in washrooms at 11 of its popular parks from January, the Beijing Daily reported yesterday.

The parks are: Beihai Park; Fragrant Hill; Temple of Haven; the Beijing Zoo; the Old Summer Palace; Beijing Botanical Garden; Yuyuantan Park; Zizhuyuan Park; Zhongshan Park; Taoranting Park; and Jingshan Park.
