just politik again by the MUI, not much will change, if it does it will be back to normal within a month after the relevant cash sums have changed hands or the sexual favours at least... what a seedy bunch

Beware east java women, expect the increase cases of rape, whether it's the angkot rape, pesantren rape, elevator rape, all kinds.. Again, its simply MUI's plot to charge nation and citizens for being their "moral police".

devine: education has nothing to do with seeking such services, highly educated & high-earning males & females also seek these services. There is nothing wrong with prostitution. Education plays a crucial part in STD awareness, safe sex practices, violence & abuses by pimps, human traficking, underage forced-prostitution, drugging of the women, etc. But prostitution with stringent STD checks, licenses, high awareness of STD sign&sypmptoms, free contraceptives, allocated district, stringent age checks, outlawing pimps, eliminate human trafficking is much more practical and effective at combating that part of social problem than to completely ban it. Ofcourse due to corruption, legalizing or illegalizing in Indo makes no difference. The world has tried to ban it since before the time of jesus, now what makes one think that banning will ever work?

It's a business that will never be stopped. The oldest in the world and it will always be around. The Aceh police station story always comes to mind. Ban it, introduce sharia by-laws and people will still find a way. Better give up on the idea of stopping this business and work on something more important like roading, infrastructure and corruption. :)

They will not succeed in this. It will just push the trade underground resulting in even more HIV and STD. The only way to stop it is to educate the male population not to seek such services... good luck !
