'Comfortable as home' public toilets in Da Nang reopen

The Department of Natural Resources and Environment of Son Tra District, Da Nang City, said on March 27 that 39 businesses have committed to letting tourists use their restrooms as public restrooms. This is the "Comfort as home" model, which has been replicated in Da Nang City in previous years.

This model also helps solve the problem of defecation in the sea, Han River, and public places because public toilets in these areas are limited. However, due to the Covid-19 epidemic, many businesses closed, there were many fluctuations, so the model was suspended for a long time.

Son Tra District People's Committee is the first locality in Da Nang City to relaunch this model, initially applied in the Da Nang beach area and Han River, in 5 wards: An Hai Tay, An Hai Dong, An Hai Bac, Man Thai, Phuoc My.

Wards are provided with decals of the "Comfort as home" model logo, providing them to businesses and encouraging them to participate in the movement. The logo is placed on the front of restaurants, hotels, eateries, spas, etc. in easily recognizable locations or in front of restrooms.

Facility owners and staff are also informed, trained, and equipped with basic foreign language communication skills to guide tourists in using public restrooms.
