You know how sad it is to live in Indonesia these days! We have noticed that many bad happened these days to us Indonesian citizens; either against different religions or cultures.

We are all one as Indonesian people. We cannot say to people that they are doing wrong things, let them be and that's not our problems or it's not our business anyway.

For example this mayor of Bogor is so stupid. What do you think other people will say to his administration if the owner of the hotels whom is not islamic religions?

Just because he is a muslim and he can do anythings and make an order such as a stupid order like that.

Damn you! Better think before you act!... Indonesia is so diversity with so much different religons and culture and ethnics, so think about that Mr. Mayor?

We don't need a stupid leader (mayor) like you where the only think that in mind money (corruption) and power.

The good things should mayors do is help poor people who want to go to school and be generous to their country.

Welcome to Bogoristan. The place where the mayor doesn't give a damn about legal decisions with the complicity of a government with no balls.

I really used to really like Bogor - but it seems every day we witness more and more ultra conservative Islam filtering and being forced into the daily life of the folk there.

You my dear moderates are 100% screwed if you don't stop this swing right here right now before its energy is too great. Pretty soon the situation will be 'if you are not with us you are against us aka a target' That is what drives fundamentalism - the fear of being outside it - All we are missing is a really charismatic leader and then its curtains - a Bashir 25 years younger and with a Blair like demeanour..

This nation is being turned into Bedlam it really is - SBY's watch may well be the herald of the darkest days Indonesia has ever witnessed... So sad

The Bogor district government says it will begin to monitor hotels hosting illegal karaoke and nightclub venues.

Luthfi Syam, spokesman for the district administration on the outskirts of Jakarta, said District Head Rachmat Yasin had vowed to punish “naughty” hotels that operated karaoke venues.

“We have never given permission to activities that could disturb public order such as karaoke or even karaoke for the family,” Luthfi said of all karaoke venues inside hotels in Bogor.

He said the district’s tourism agency had been instructed to begin monitoring the offending entertainment outlets.

“We will [shut them down] according to the regulations after we find enough evidence.”

He said the closures would be carried out by the Public Order Agency (Satpol-PP).

Karaoke venues are often used as fronts for prostitution.
