The government has decided to submit the draft of the bill against pornography and pornographic
acts. The bill states that anyone engaging in pornography is punishable by law. This includes
public acts such as spouses kissing and people sunbathing in bikini or swimwear. As a
consequence, the bill causes controversy.
The government argues that the bill is made to protect women’s right. Women have so far been
the object of exploitation in mass media and this only gives more benefits to the owner of the
business.
Woman activists, on the other hand, argue that the bill will limit women’s freedom. They believe
the bill will dictate what women should wear and on how to dress and behave. If they fail
following the rule they will get penalties between Rp50 million and Rp1 billion.
Nevertheless, I do support the bill against pornography and pornographic acts. I believe that the
bill can decrease the rampant pornography shown or written in mass media that gives bad effects
on young generations.

Are there any advantages of TV? Many parents admitted that they found difficulties to stop their
children’s bad habit, for example, they spend their leisure time for watching TV more than
reading. Children become very lazy and irresponsible for their tasks. This is of course denied by
TV producers or people whose works is related to TV.

students. On the other hand, they honestly admit that TV programs can endanger children’s

Couples that practice birth control do so for various reasons. They may want to limit or space
their children or to have no children at all. Young couples often postpone having children so that
both partners can work full-time. Other couples space their children so they can give each child
as much attention as possible. Some women are advised by their doctors to avoid pregnancy for
health reasons. In many countries with rapidly growing populations, the government encourages
couples to limit the size of their families.
Even though birth control has gained in acceptance, opposition to the practice is continuous.
Some people fear that birth control encourages sexual relations outside marriage or that
government might impose birth control. Some religious groups oppose birth control on moral
grounds.
Some religious groups teach that artificial methods of birth control are immoral because they
separate the two purposes of intercourse in marriage–conjugal love and the procreation of
children. Although they oppose all artificial birth control, they consider natural family planning
acceptable.
