I see nothing wrong. Clearly this good samaritan is pulling a Sandusky and teaching this young boy how to shower.

It's a statue of "Dr. Isaac Eustaquio, the first Filipino to earn a Public Health degree from Harvard University in the United States."

And they thought of giving him kudos by erecting a 16ft statue of him holding a bucket while little kid shits in it?

I don't think you read the article. The bucket has water in it and he's cleaning the boy off after he's done using the toilet. I don't know where they got the inspiration for this, but I think they had good intentions. Maybe it's not as strange to Filipino people as it is to Westerners. Can't really say.

I read the article. I was just saying what it looks like at first glance.

If anything needs a statue, it's whatever inspired this statue.

That statue is of a great man, one who helped to save countless lives from a disease that we in the first world don't give a second thought to. It's not a WTF moment.

The doctor looks vaguely like the evil assassin Parchezi from the Hitman series? What the hell?

Ew, if you look closely, you can see the little boy's testicle showing. Pedobear on the loose...

Just because it's cut out of marble doesn't make it art...
