A long-awaited and controversial law has been passed in Indonesia that makes sex outside marriage punishable by jail time and bans unmarried couples from living together.

Sex outside marriage has been banned in Indonesia, with anyone caught, including tourists in the Southeast Asian holiday destination, at risk of jail time.

The amended code also bans the promotion of contraception, insulting the sitting president and spreading views counter to the secular national ideology, known as the Pancasila.

“Only close relatives such as a spouse, parent or child can report complaints related to extramarital sex or cohabiting.” but even if it’s a friend or maybe even a stranger, they’ll probably come knocking

They need some bombs & democracy then to get back to their senses

BoycottIndonesia

Another destination to add to the list of places / countries not to visit. L*t*n ❌ 🖕🏻 Dubai ❌ Qatar ❌ China ❌ Russia ❌ Indonesia ❌

Pathetic. Are they going to arrest wildlife too?

Great. So that when you have an argument in the family, your own relative will accuse you and have you arrested with no proof. That’s the only use that’ll have.

I can't go there then the heat sends me wild for some jiggy jiggy. Been with my other half nearly 20 years and not married. I would get arrested the first day there because my other half would be fighting me off him LOL'S 🤣

What is disturbing are people who say it’s their country, their laws. This is an attack on freedom especially for women. We cannot turn a blind eye. In a country many years ago they thought it was fine to put folk in ghettos and then exterminate them. Their country, their laws?

Absolutely ridiculous.

That’s fine 🤷‍♂️ I’ll not be visiting !!

Takes on a whole new meaning of bangedupabroad

To be fair: so many women are promiscuous these days, it's probably not the worst thing.

Next stop, charging for oxygen?

Here comes a lot of false marriages🤣

Let's go to Thailand instead

Government sanctioned nooky is so hot.

The Bali 2028 World Cup already looks like it will be a talking point

I guess they just 'screwed' their tourism industry.

Chilling in Bali right now... won't make much difference here as is too hard to police..law not coming in for a few years, and as it stands only a direct relative can report you...

I wish them luck with tourism. Back to the dark ages, what's next public lashings or worse.

That's bali finished then.

Good

What on earth

Absolutely absurd infringement of human rights. There isn’t a day goes by that I’m not convinced even more that the whole world is totally and utterly screwed up.

Save the forests... Save the orangutans!

Does this include the Brothels in Indonesia? Lol 🤣 🤣🤣

This is one of those things that will never get enforced

Another destination to scrub of the list.

That’s an easy one. Go somewhere that isn’t in the dark ages.

Dictatorship or what. This country's going backwards.

Wow feel sorry for young people

Sex inside marriage is difficult enough.

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Also punishment for speaking out against the government in any tone.

How will they monitor this.... Lol

May as well start putting cameras in everyone’s houses too

Won’t take long to fill the jails then

They won’t be getting much from tourism then will they!!

Indonesia slowly becoming the new sphincter of the planet after saudi arabia

And sex in marriage is rewarded with a trophy 🏆

This will will cripple their tourist economy.

How will they know. Seriously what a load of bollocks. If I was cynical I would say they will try to introduce some kind of holiday tax exemption at the point of entry 😂😂

So no one can have sex there unless married Blimey don’t tell the tories.

What if a top politician from Indonesia will do it? ...and for sure will be not only one. Maybe they could force divorce rather...Hello world where are you going! USA with abortions now this?

Oh well there goes the sex trade there 😂😂😂😂

WTF?

Indonesia clearly weren't happy with the level of destruction Covid brought to their essential tourism economy so they're going one further

BaliToursmBoard indotourism kiss your tourism industry goodbye

The continued forward march of Islam..

Bali's main economic sector, direct supporting roughly 58,000 jobs with more than 20% of the population directly dependent on the sector. The overall contribution of tourism to Bali's economy is estimated to be in the region of 60-70%.

About time too! You can't have unmarried couples running amuck . It's just not on.

Absolutely disgusting

Have an uncle who lives there, policing that will be interesting 🤣

Good. Makes sense.

So if a couple go on holiday there how would they police their bedroom to know if they are sex or not?🤔

I’ll travel to Thailand instead of Bali then

For those saying...'backward country' check your previous posts for 'Their country, their rules' re: Qatar 2022 and gay rights.

Good luck enforcing that. 🤣🤣🤣

Hahahaha well...no tourism for them then.

Good luck with your tourist trade then commie Indonesia.

How on earth will they know

Right or wrong Indonesias law, if your not happy with this don't go. Mind you don't know how they will in force this.

Mainly aimed at women making sure they stick to rules. Not that shocking when a few pockets of the more devout sharia zones of England already do that. 🧐

That's why you should get rid of that particular satanic religion

And? Its their country and can pass any law they see fit. Dont like then dont go.

They’re banning nature now? 😂 Imagine being stuck there for a few weeks without being allowed to shag your partner. Are you at least allowed to bash one out to get rid of the built up tension? There’s definitely gonna be a spike in violent crimes 😂

I guess there won't be anymore hoes there.

This world is going backwards

Saggi50 Be careful in Bali.

Ha ha, what are they going to do , burst into people's hotel rooms and arrest them all ?

It’s like they want to go back to the third world hovel such a backward outlook on life sure people who rely on tourism will be ecstatic

Did they also ban same sex marriage? If it's legal there🤷

Best not fuck in public, just to be safe.

Unfortunately ،The true face of Islam!

Glad things are finally going in the right direction everywhere.

Authoritarianism. Then they'll moan when all the holidaymakers go elsewhere........

lawhawk How do they plan to enforce this law? Are they putting cameras in everyone’s bedrooms? Just curious.

I imagine they’ll be hosting a FIFAWorldCup pretty soon then

This wil be the UK soon. How things are going
