children act, pornography

According to the United Kingdom' law, an accused whose aged is below 18 or 16 , his or her name cannot be exposed to the public and no press should be in the court room. This is to ensure that the child is not exposed to the public and it is used to protect the interest of the child i.e it will not cause any harm for him/her in the future.

Every country has their own interpretation and rules to the system and how they are going to preserve and maintain their country. The law in the UK is totally opposite to Indonesian law. Recently, there is a case whereby a 14 year old boy has been trial in court because he was involved in a fight with another person. There were press during the trial, and the identity of the boy( name, place ) had been exposed. It seem that in Indonesia, it has no particular law or legistation which can be used to protect children. Most of the laws are quite old dated back during the Dutch government time. One of the example is pornography where they just want to implement it recently. It is still during a debate in the parliament. According to the old law, as long as it is morally explicit then it is porno. Every one has their own interpretation of the term 'morally explicit', a conservative person may define it in a narrow term while a liberal person may defini it liberally. There may be an old law to define pornography but practically, it is not like that. We can find a lot of prostitutes on the roads, women who wear sexy clothes almost everyday, and some cheap cinemas playing pornography . If there is a rape case, most of the time , they blame it on pornography, but in fact is that true?

The ban of playboy magazine, one of the example, have they checked the content of it before banning it? or is it just because of the name, therefore there is a ban?
Even if a pornography Act is coming out later, it should not be too strict ( women should not wear sexy clothes etc) as we live in a globalisation country, it is true that Indonesia has the most muslim citizen but do not forget that we still have other religius in that country. The argument for Balinese may be true as by enforcing pornography act too strictly, it will affect their tourism. In my submission, the house of representative must discuss this matter thoroughly , in detail and dont be rush as the act may affect everyone and even economy in indonesia and once it is enforceable, it will just be follow for a long time, and even if we want to change it, it may cause alot of controversy and the same thing, same procerdure may happen again.
