I don't know about clean, I saw hardly any (men) wash their hands after using the bathroom. Sometimes they'd wave their hands under the tap. Without turning it on.

Seemed more like obsession with being tidy than hygeinic.

Lots of public bathrooms don't have hand dryers for some reason. So I assume they don't want wet hands?

Although even in toilets with hand dryers, I've seen many Japanese not dry their hands after washing!
