This happens everywhere in the world after every holiday (I remember there was one in BC a few weeks ago)
But never to this extent |

typical western propaganda.
what they're not including is that the very next day it'll probably be clean. a million city workers woulda cleaned it up over night.

the way garbage is delt with in south east asia is just saddening
amazing beautiful scenery and garbage every where along towns, roads everywhere...
took the train in myanmar a couple weeks ago and people just throw their shit right out the window...kids, adults everyone
i think the main problem a complete lack of understanding that what their doing is discussing and ruing their countries and two they're just too lazy to do anything else with it

India is a prime example of a place were no fucks are given for anyone or anything.
Case in point, I went to Mumbai last year and visited Juhu beach and there was not one inch of beach which wasn't littered with garbage and debris, it was awful. What was even more shocking was people walking barefoot like no big deal even though the entire beach was littered with glass and other sharp objects.

english bay was not that bad in comparison. sure theres lots of garbage. but the pictures of that beach are just disgusting. do they not have employees working during the holiday to clean up as the day goes by?? there's those little straw mat things they lay on spread all over the place as if they brought it there to use knowing they would just leave it on the ground. disgusting pigs. if a garbage can is full, is it really that hard to carry your personal trash to the next available bin? all your garbage can easily fit into a safeway bag.
i used to be a garbage man when i was younger. working at english bay, celebration of lights was the day we dreaded. but in comparison it was nowhere near that bad. littering is a pet peeve of mine now because i used to be the poor bastard holding those paper picking tongs and had to go throughout the entire park and beaches daily.
people like that are useless. almost as useless as the people who walk their dogs and let them shit on other peoples property and dont pick it up

never go to free public beaches in china. they are gross and trash should be expected. especially a free beach in shenzhen, so nasty.
should have went to one of the many waterparks (some of the best in the world) or hainan island.

I don't know what's more nasty, the garbage or the people who still choose to lay there in it's present state.

being china they likely just bulldozed it all into the ocean and built a skyscraper on it

yeah China needs a law like Singapore.
I think Singapore takes this problem seriously and if you throw a cigarette for example, $1,000 fine right there.
