ATTENTION, PLEASE: People walk under a sign stating that wearing
Muslim dress is obligatory in the provincial capital of Banda
Aceh, Aceh province. A form of Islamic syariah law is being
implemented in the restive province, including the requirement
that women have to cover their heads, arms and legs, as a move to
dampen calls for separatism in the staunchly Muslim region.
