Indonesia’s police consficated pornographic DVDs, VCDs, and tabloids in Jakarta. And just what are those two gentlemen in uniforms doing, I wonder. Reading some “news”, sir?

So, is porn totally illegal in Indonesia? Or is it just forbidden to bring it in from outside the country?
When visiting Japan, I noticed a lot of signs saying that any pornography found in luggae will be confiscated. Yet, porn is legal in Japan. Wait, I take that back — all porn in Japan is censored. How would I know that? Um, nevermind…

One more comment about this: Why were tabloids confiscated? Were they pornography-related tabloids or just the average, run-of-the-mill kind chock full of celebrity exploits?

The anti-pornography debate is still going on there, but a new pornography law is coming. It is likely to make any kind of porn illegal; including those tabloids the policemen were–ahem–”reading”. I don’t know exactly how those tabloids look like lol when I was still there I had never seen such things. I guess things have changed.

That’s an X-cellent picture. Very funny, and almost too good to be true.
