A

ug. 2, Online: Journalists posted to the House of Representatives on Monday observed a touch screen, intended to display the legislative body’s schedule for the current day, showing porn. The touch screen, located just outside the press room, displayed a free video porn site. House staff, internal security and reporters tried to close the site, but their efforts came to no avail. It appeared that the site was airing from an external source.

Your comments:


This is so funny. And it’s received international publicity too. I’m so happy there are people in Indonesia who are so creative and skilled in their protests. I look forward to seeing more like this.
The members of the People’s Consultative Assembly and the House need to remember that they are public servants.

The hackers must have deliberately thought before doing this. Maybe we should ask the hackers what their real aims were.
It’s a pity the hackers didn’t write any messages on the screen.
Why porn? Why not pictures of suffering in this country? If this happens every day I hope it changes the mentality of House members
