This is in response to the article “Proper hygiene awareness is a must,” in Saudi Gazette (July 13). Dear sister Samar Al-Mogren: Thank you for writing a useful article. Proper hygiene is a must for everyone, for not only does it affect their health but also others if they do not practice good hygiene. It is really true situation, which you described and the solution is proper. We request municipality of Jeddah to follow your points to clean our streets and city from bad odor.
