You get these 'do not stand on toilet' signs
in countries where large numbers of tourists may be used to the squat-over-the-hole types, and think they need to stand on the seat.
Conversely, one of the few times I've seen a Japanese toilet outside Japan was in the Giant Panda Breeding Centre in Chengdu. There were signs on the door advising how to use it in Chinese, Japanese and English, along with the 'do not stand' sign. However, it was all to much information for the poor bastard who was in there before me, who evidently took one look at this monster of technology and decided to have a dump in the waste basket next to it instead.
