Cruel but fair
Okay, then explain to us non-lawyers how a foreign monger is going to get caught up in this while fucking a hooker.
I suppose the hooker would need to be married, then her husband, parents or children who have witnessed the event report her to the police, thereby incriminating both the monger and the hooker. Most hookers in Bali fly in from Java.
There are already anti-adultery laws in Indonesia, this legislation just tightens them up and increases the penalties.
It is aimed at Indonesians and to prevent them from living together when unmarried and also clamping down on married people having affairs.
It requires an interested party to bring an action.
It is also aimed at gays and lesbians since gay marriage is not legal in Indonesia then gays and lesbians are caught in a Classic Catch 22. They have to be married to have sex, but they are not allowed to get married.
The average tourist visiting Indonesia has nothing to worry about.
It is a terrible and unfair and oppressive law though.
Looks like it's already making waves.IMG_20221207_192134.jpg

An Indo friend of mine in Indonesia has told me this is a “nothing burger”. The law for premarital sex had always been there, just not sensationalised by the media like this time.
The only thing that this new law adds to the situation is that the spouse can now report a partner for adultery, ie. premarital sex, thereby triggering this law.
That is the only net effect. I’ll let you decide how you wanna take this.
Yeah just appeasement, doubt anything serious will come of it
So let me get this right; you can kill 200 people and get released from prison after only serving half the jail time. You get caught with a few kilos of weed, and have to serve 20yrs in prison. There's a ban from insulting the Obama look alike, including insulting state institutions and state ideologies, if caught it's 3 years jail time - WTF!
That is one fucked up place, with primitive laws, ugly cities and oppressed women - a total dump of a place. Who'd wanna go there?
I can think of 100 better holiday destinations to fuck a chick out of wedlock.
One report I came across today said the new laws won't come into effect for about 3 years, some time to slip over there and have fun.
