This is wrong. The police should assist them to file a complaint with the military police.

To Serve and protect is a joke in Indonesia. Police are cowards. They are afraid of the military.

Both the Police and military are very irritating institutions in Indonesia because of their cowardice.

They even put stickers on their private cars stating they are members of the great Police force family or that they are Marines. Or they dig up some old police or military hat and put it on their dashboard. This is what I hate the most. In this way they try to avoid being stopped in Police raids, and they try to intimidate people by showing them up-front.

"Read my sticker ... don't mess with me and, take a hike." Every one in Indonesia should put stickers on their cars stating they are Marines, or from the great police force family. This would be a simple means to stop the cowards using this intimidating trick. Class justice -- that's what it is.

This is probably not the entire story. But of course we will always assume military personnel are lower-class barbarians. I would love to hear from the other side. Just because it is a woman, we assume she was right, she was polite and didn't provoke the problem.

Uneducated and aggressive military personnel living among us? What is this, a zoo?

Let me out of this dump, please.

Against porn bill -- Sept. 15, p. 1

Some corrupt cops are paid and now the big politicians are coming up with a stupid bill. Maybe they also go to those places and just want more corrupt income for small cops, regional bosses so they can earn more allowing this because they get more money paid.

For me it's even fine that those establishments exist, but making this bill so important is a joke. The rest of the year everybody who has money can get everywhere. That's the reality and I am not listing all the massage and karaoke places.

Forbidding bikinis, art and cultural treasure is just a shame for this whole country. This bill is not made to protect children like they say -- it's just to abuse people and in the end nothing will change.
