‘You can cook sitting on the toilet’: 6-square-metre Chinese nano-flat under the stairs slammed as affront to human dignity

Images of a tiny suburban living space in China where the tenant can sit on the toilet and cook at the same time which is being marketed for its “all-inclusive” design have gone viral online.

The six-square-metre room in Shanghai is being offered for rent at 380 yuan (RM242) per month and has triggered an online buzz after a property agent shared a video of it on social media late last month.
