Hemas supports condom machines

YOGYAKARTA: In the fight against HIV/AIDS, GKR Hemas, the wife
of Yogyakarta Governor Hamengkubuwono X, has proven to be a
strong ally, calling for more condom vending machines in the
city.

"Installing more condom vending machines would help in
preventing the spread of sexually transmittable diseases, like
HIV/AIDS, in Yogyakarta," she said on Thursday.

She said promoting condom use should not be interpreted as
encouraging free sex.
"How can condom vending machines be seen as promoting free sex
when there are enough movies, with sexual content, that do that
already," she said.

She also spoke on the urgency to teach sex education in
schools. -- JP
