Vulgar TV after 10
Vulgar TV after 10
From Republika
Today's TV programs, particularly those after 10 p.m., are
still loaded with sexual behavior and problems presented in a
vulgar way, such as reality shows about promiscuous women and
female students seeking money, the use of aphrodisiacs, the life
of prostitutes and other indecent fragments.
Meanwhile, a number of Indonesian films of the 1970s, 1980s
and early 1990s, which mostly exploit sex and apparently escaped
censorship, have also been shown by several stations in recent
months.
What has remained widespread on nearly all TV channels are
programs depicting mystical phenomena, ghosts, black magic and
superstitious beliefs, which are not educative, but polytheistic
and against religious teachings.
