squat toilet
Crouch-and-go lavatory
A squat toilet is a toilet designed for use in a squatting position rather than sitting, with the user's feet positioned on either side of a basin or hole at floor level.
Standard in many parts of Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, squat toilets are less common in Western countries, where they may appear in older public facilities or as specialized fixtures.
