Anti-porn bill unites Indonesian bloggers
The proposed anti-porn bill in Indonesia will have wide reaching implications if passed. The anti-porn bill has united Indonesian bloggers like nothing else, writes Jakartass. A Bali group has a web site Jiwa Merdaka (Free Soul) dedicated to stopping the law infringing on Balinese traditions, customs and freedom of expression.
In my opinion this law seeks to further the agenda of one religion, Islam. It seeks to further it the interpretation of fundamentalists, who when it comes down to it, do not want a multi-cultural country, they want Islam 24/7.
I heard there are protests in Bali today. Someone sent me and email about it but I can’t open my mail so I can’t comment. Viva Tiara Lestari!
