Scary world

Scary world

From Media Indonesia

Yesterday, my father read an article about Janet Jackson's
laser disc entitled "Janet" not being allowed to be sold in
Singapore because of its indecent cover.

I guess Singapore is stricter than Jakarta.

But Jakarta is even scarier. A few days ago, I passed a cinema
which displayed movie posters which are somewhat obscene. I also
read my mother's magazines (if my father knew about it, I would
get punished) which contain obscenity, such as love affairs and
much more.

If I go to the cinema to watch a movie, even though I'm going
to watch a children's show, there are still commercials for
adults.

My father said yesterday wasn't like today... it's too scary.
