    Halah kabeh kok dilarang. Are we really that stupid and incapable of self-filtering information that many subjects are made taboo to show and discussed? Are we really that stupid to have things sorted/censored for us prior to viewing?? Gee, no wonder many are narrow minded.

    I’ve seen in an Indonesian TV-Programme about a cleric (wearing a typical dress) “healing” a so called obsessed woman with the “power” of the holy words of his religion.
    Is this also an alternative medicine? Or mystical? Also forbidden?
    I would wonder!!

    It’s probably a set up.

    Do you think those ghost buster guys on tv in Indonesia really get rid of ghosts? my husband is an educated Indonesian, not stupid, but he is ngotot that they really put those ghosts in jars!
    Is it real?

    Hi Janma,

    Some things cannot be explained with logic, whether or not these things are real or not depend on the person itself. If you believe that there is such thing as supernatural then maybe it does exist, I myself am a sceptic, but as I said before some things cannot be explained…. the truth is out there, Scully.

    Well alternate medicine is a good option, even though they are not fully proven, some forms of alternate medicine have shown pretty good effects on a lot of patients.
    Its worth the shot.

    And you are right Dimp some things cannot be explained by logic. Especially the Chinese acupuncture. One may ask how on earth can a bunch of needles which are stuck into my body cure me. Well i cant answer that question but it has worked on me. I cant explain it but its true.

    What kind of alternative medicine that is being banned??
    Is it like our people’s alternative medicine jamu kuat that sold by the beautiful woman carrying basket or the one like some water that already dipped with some-certain stone??
