Cambodians to Throw a Potty Party
HNOM PENH, Cambodia - The residents of a Cambodian village will throw a party this weekend to celebrate a sanitation milestone: a toilet in every home.
All 94 families in Sleng village in Kampong Speu province have installed a simple latrine in their homes to deal with solid human waste, making the village "a model of good hygiene" for neighboring communities, the U.N. children's organization said.
Hilda Winarta, a UNICEF water and sanitation officer, said the latrines are simple _ holes in the ground surrounded by walls made from tree leaves or plastic sheets _ but can help prevent outbreaks of dangerous diseases.
The village will celebrate its achievement on Saturday with ceremonies and speeches by the village chief, government officials and UNICEF.
A local comedian will also perform, and village actors will perform a short play about how the village residents will no longer have to defecate outdoors.
