When the will Indonesian Education Department realize that sex education must be a part of the formal curriculum! Actually sex education is only one part ... What is needed is Life education that includes 'stranger danger', drugs (incl. alcohol and smoking), healthy life style (so many fat teenagers now!!) and IAD (Internet addiction disorder). Cmon Diknas - wake up!!!

Some promote Sharia law, which if we use the example of Aceh.. means the moral police can lock you in jail then rape you...thats sounds like a great system if your a man? but then again Sharia is only about man and making people follow thier rules ,to rule, they need to control not their bodies, but their minds and their souls. Tyranny wants loyalty, but it will settle for fear. And fear, once internalized, destroys moral courage and replaces it with moral cowardice, eroding the strength of beliefs and ideas with the poisonous liquid of dread.

The individual becomes an agent for the forces of tyranny, protecting himself against any action that could get him into trouble. And then he finally is a slave.

I guess anyone wanting sharia law wants you to be a slave so you cant question thier actions all a sideshow so they can do as they please in the name of islam but they dont know anything at all...

@peter: i know the stages of sexual interactions you mention applies in most western countries, but perhaps its different here. Oral sex is more likely considered a lesser sin than full intercourse (as teenagers i would believe they still care about sins in spite of their promiscuity), hence, preferable.

On the "almost 100%" figure, I concur, B.S.

Yes I have to agree.

"21.2 percent of the girls had had an abortion."

That's just ridiculous.


Almost 100 percent of 4,500 Indonesian urban teenagers sampled in a new survey have had oral sex and 32 percent have had full sexual intercourse.

The poll by the Indonesian Child Protection Commission (KPAI) surveyed 4,500 teenagers between the ages of 14 and 18 in the cities of Jakarta, Bandung in West Java and Surabaya in East Java.

KPAI Chairman Hadi Supeno told Metro TV that the survey found that 93.7 percent of the teenagers had had oral sex, 32 had had sex and 21.2 percent of the girls had had an abortion.

It also revealed, according to Hadi, that most of the teenagers learned about sex from the Internet.

“Ninety seven percent of them have accessed porn sites at least once,” Hadi said.

The methadology of the survey was not revealed.

Hadi said the KPAI urged Communication and Information Minister Tifatul Sembiring to block pornographic Web sites. “If China and Iran can do it, so can Indonesia,” Hadi argued.

Tifatul, meanwhile, said he was very concerned about the survey results.

“I am very concerned with the results of the KPAI survey that 97 percent teenagers had seen or accessed porn,” he said. “I am calling on everyone's support to limit distribution of negative content on the Internet or in the movies. Everyone must take part in protecting our youth.”
