These same persons do not bother themselves that their waste would be highly correct to toss in a container specially designed for this and which is several meters from the place where they rudely "shat". The Chinese are highly cultural and tolerant people, but even they were angry and outraged would not be for this attitude to their own neighbors and to the place where he lives, who does not even know the basic rules of etiquette and excellent manners.....
