Finally cup/device to assist me to pee in squat toilet arrive last 21 February 2019.
Bought this one after I have trajectory issue /massive splashback in peeing using squat toilet last week while I was unwell.
Close up on the device.
That time, I used the top part of 5 liter bottle to assist me well in my pee trajectory.

Despite the below article is for male, the same concept applies to woman also.
By far the best way to reduce splashback is to alter the angle of your pee stream so that it hits the wall of the toilet/urinal at a gradual angle; the closer to 90 degrees, the worse the splashback will be. The other easy way of saving your marriage is by simply sitting down: Your pee travels five times farther when you’re standing up, picking up a lot of velocity on the way, creating far more splashback. Sitting down usually implies a narrower angle of attack, too.
My verdict:
I have used the cup/device to pee. The width of the cup/device just good enough for my usage. No more splashback. Just that I have to wash the cup/device thoroughly before leave the toilet. That is the only drawback.
Till then, have fun savouring the moment pee without splashback in squat toilet.

As you can probably imagine, for a variety of reasons — hygiene, ethics, controlling for environmental factors, repeatability… — the Splash Lab didn’t use “in the field” testing. Rather, the researchers built some special apparatus (pictured right) that simulates male urination, including the Plateau-Rayleigh instability that causes your pee stream to break up into droplets (also increasing splashback, incidentally — the deck is definitely stacked against us men). They then filled the apparatus with colored water, set up a high-speed camera, and systematically synthetically urinated on a variety of different targets.
While this might all sound like fun and a waste of university funds, the Splash Lab’s research into urinal dynamics is actually a serious endeavor. The simple matter of the fact is that splashback is unhygienic. Splashback, and the bacteria that breeds in the puddles of pee, is one of the reasons that public bathrooms smell so bad. In hospitals, nursing homes, and other large institutions, splashback can be a serious health risk. The Splash Lab hopes that its research will help with the development of better toilet designs and usage habits that minimize pee splashback, thus increasing health and reducing matrimonial stress worldwide.
