I don't think anyone particularly revels in shitting outside. (I live in India, and don't see joy in people's faces when they do this).
If people can afford a toilet, and get access to sanitation and plumbing, they will use them.
In fact, the government has massive toilet-subsidy programs, and it's the government's responsibility to provide plumbing. Everybody here knows these programs and responsibilities are a joke, because of corruption (officials pocket the money for those toilet subsidies) and bureaucracy (getting the subsidies probably requires paperwork that the target citizens don't have, though that's just a guess on my part).
So, yes, an ineffective government (in large part due to corruption) may well be a huge part of the problem, if not the entire problem.
