My soap (in the UK) looks much more like the one attributed to Nepal in that picture. Can't stand those bottled ones: even if they don't stink of perfume, I find them impossible to rinse off (though that wouldn't be such a problem with the harder water much of Blighty - especially the rich bits - has).
More seriously, I expect you're comparing standardised consumer goods owned by rich people with home-made stuff in poorer countries. I wonder how it'd fare with frugal make-do-and-mend folks in rich countries?
