Five ringgit at Gardens Mid Valley will buy you this - the luxury of pretending that a public restroom is exclusively yours:
And you can put a name to your soap:
I'm not sure whether it was part of a promotion, but in addition to my change for a ten ringgit note, I received a two ringgit voucher which could go to my second use of the posh restroom or the nearby cafe presumptuously named Pastis. Between one of the nicest non-hotel public restrooms I've ever seen and limp sandwiches, the choice is obvious.
From the Smithsonian Institution's Flickr photostream:
" This city letter carrier posed for a humorous photograph with a young boy in his mailbag. After parcel post service was introduced in 1913, at least two children were sent by the service. With stamps attached to their clothing, the children rode with railway and city carriers to their destination. The Postmaster General quickly issued a regulation forbidding the sending of children in the mail after hearing of those examples."
