"Sewage Overflowed from Toilet"... Cause Revealed Leaves Netizens "Shocked"

Let's take a look at the next story.

This is quite absurd as well.

The title reads, "40 kg of rice found in an apartment sewage pipe."

The sewage pipe in an apartment building became blocked.

This caused sewage to back up into lower-floor households, and it turned out that what clogged the pipe was 40 kg of rice.

Yesterday, a post was uploaded on social media along with a photo of an apartment notice, saying, "They say 40 kg of rice was found in the sewage pipe, why would anyone do this?"

Let's take a closer look at the notice.

It states that on the 21st, sewage backed up through the toilets of lower-floor households in the apartment complex, causing sewage to spill out into the bathrooms of some units.

The apartment management explained that they hired a contractor to clean the pipes, and upon doing so, they found that a staggering 40 kg of rice had blocked the plumbing, causing the sewage to back up into the lower-floor homes.

They added that the costs for repairing and cleaning up after such incidents ultimately fall on the shared management fees, urging residents to flush only waste and toilet paper down the toilet, and to properly dispose of items like rice, wet wipes, and food waste using standard garbage bags.

Netizens reacted with various comments, such as, "The rice itself is surprising, but the amount of 40 kg is even more shocking," and "Shouldn't they track this down to the end and bill the person responsible for the cleaning costs?"
