    It doesn’t look too good to me Patung.
    How is this connected to the official law?

    How does the government respond to this dual legal system?
    I assume it is NOT officially recognized by the government.

    Well it is, it’s legal, Aceh has “special” status. Aceh is meant to be the only place that can pass religious-based laws, but others are doing it, like in Padang, and the central goverrnment may be going to do something about it.

    Shows the sub-humans Islamic inhabitants of Indonesia. This is not a religion, but an epidemic called Islam, followers of made-believe gods and a pedophile “prophet”. Islam is no more than a cult of death that must be extirpated from the planet if the world is to survive.

    Sounds to me that the U.S.A. ought to have something like that. I really believe petty crime like stealing, vandalizing..would not likely happen again to the same person, knowing that’s what happens if he or her ever done it again.

    Go ahead and volunteer then, you probably screamed about waterboarding though didn’t you.

    Such a waste, It should be done to the bare ass, so the person gets the real feel of each stroke. The way it’s done in Pakistan. I would love to watch them get it.
