Beijing: A disturbing incident at a restaurant in Hangzhou has sparked outrage after a two-year-old boy urinated into a glass meant for customers, with his mother defending the act.
According to a report by the South China Morning Post, a diner, identified as Tang, witnessed the incident at Fuyuanju Restaurant on March 13 and later reported it to local media.
Tang recounted that the child, who was dining with his mother and two elderly relatives, suddenly stood up, pulled down his trousers, and urinated into a glass. When one of the elderly family members suggested using a bin, the boy’s mother dismissed the idea, saying, "Just let him pee directly into the glass."
Tang expressed frustration that the restaurant staff, despite being nearby, did not intervene. The urine-filled glass remained on the table, creating an unbearable odor for other diners. Eventually, Tang and her friends had to request a staff member to remove it.
While the boy’s mother later apologized, she defended her actions, stating, "We're sorry, but he really couldn't hold it anymore. So he peed in the cup."
The incident has drawn widespread criticism on Chinese social media, with many comparing it to the recent “Haidilao Urinating Gate” scandal, where two teenagers were caught urinating into a hotpot at a well-known restaurant chain, causing public outrage and financial repercussions for the company.

Another North Goa nightclub sealed; Kejriwal says corruption led to fire tragedy
Panaji (PTI): As part of a crackdown against tourist establishments violating laws and safety norms in the aftermath of the Arpora fire tragedy, Goa authorities on Saturday sealed a renowned club at Vagator and revoked the fire department NOC of another club.
Cafe CO2 Goa, located on a cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea at Vagator beach in North Goa, was sealed. The move came two days after Goya Club, also in Vagator, was shut down for alleged violations of rules.
Elsewhere, campaigning for local body polls, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal said the fire incident at Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub at Arpora, which claimed 25 lives on December 6, happened because the BJP government in the state was corrupt.
An inspection of Cafe CO2 Goa by a state government-appointed team revealed that the establishment, with a seating capacity of 250, did not possess a no-objection certificate (NOC) of the Fire and Emergency Services Department. The club, which sits atop Ozrant Cliff, also did not have structural stability, the team found.
The Fire and Emergency Services on Saturday also revoked the NOC issued to Diaz Pool Club and Bar at Anjuna as the fire extinguishers installed in the establishment were found to be inadequate, said divisional fire officer Shripad Gawas.
A notice was issued to Nitin Wadhwa, the partner of the club, he said in the order.
Campaigning at Chimbel village near Panaji in support of his party's Zilla Panchayat election candidate, Aam Aadmi Party leader Kejriwal said the nightclub fire at Arpora happened because of the "corruption of the Pramod Sawant-led state government."
"Why this fire incident happened? I read in the newspapers that the nightclub had no occupancy certificate, no building licence, no excise licence, no construction licence or trade licence. The entire club was illegal but still it was going on," he said.
"How could it go on? Couldn't Pramod Sawant or anyone else see it? I was told that hafta (bribe) was being paid," the former Delhi chief minister said.
A person can not work without bribing officials in the coastal state, Kejriwal said, alleging that officers, MLAs and even ministers are accepting bribes.
