Local school joins world toilet line


To mark World Water Day today, the World's Longest Toilet Queues are being formed at various locations across the world - including Bangkok.

 KIS International School in Bangkok is joining this attempt,which began on Saturday, to be listed in the Guinness Book of World Records by forming a toilet queue with about 500 people, which will be added to participants lining up in multiple locations across the world at the same time.

According to www.worldtoiletqueue.org, World Water Day is a crucial moment in the fight against the global sanitation and water crisis that's killing 4,000 children every single day.

Next month, politicians from across the globe will gather in Washington DC to discuss what they need to do to fulfil some of the most basic rights of world citizens - access to a safe toilet and clean water.

This website invites people worldwide to organise or join a queue to demand action from the world's governments.

The students and staff of KIS are staging the event on a large sports field, where they are queuing for a mock-up portable toilet placed at one end of the field.

This global campaign is being organised by the End Water Poverty, the Freshwater Action Network and the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council.
