Actual & Factual
















Have you ever considered that what may be normal
to you and me may be strange to others?

In Indonesia it is common to see people with a very
long fingernail on one or the other finger of their
left hand.  The reason for this?  Public toilets are
extremely rare, making it necessary to use whatever 
facility is available.  Toilet paper is equally rare -
this is where the long fingernail comes to use!

So, for the obvious reasons, Indonesians will never
hand an object with their left hand, as it is considered
to be unclean.
