CONCLUSION
The need for STI/HIV prevention interventions in
young adult Indonesians the changing social
attitudes and behaviours regarding sex an
increase in sexual activity before marriage:
Condoms are not reported to widely used for
disease prevention and erroneous beliefs for STIs,
their prevention and cure appear widespread
Changing attitudes and behaviours are likely to
increase the risk over coming years if effective
campaigns are not put in place
There would be no better time than now to
introduce intervention that take into account the
reality of the changing social environment of young
adult Indonesia
