India was mocked for lack of toilets but Post-2014 reformation has been very impressive. Now Af-Pak are the toilet-less shitholes of SE Asia.

We have now over 98 % sanitization as per last report. Not only that but India saves around 300 K children because of batter hygiene. They used to die because of Collera disease as per WHO report.

Actually Pakis are such guys who can mock India for open defection for half of an hour on mobile while defecting in open waiting for poo to release because of high constipation.
