Serial spitters in China to be evicted

One of the dirtiest habits still prevalent in China is spitting, ach… but serial spitters will be evicted from public housing, is this a bit too much? Won’t fines suffice like in Hong Kong.

Throwing away fruit peel, spitting out chewing gum, gambling and urinating in public are also on the forbidden list, and the plan is modelled on a similar scheme in nearby Hong Kong.

I don’t think kicking people out of their homes would help the situation. Still it’s one of the many dirty habits that people from Mainland China should move away from.
