when someone's problem is everybody's problem


The internet has just bombarded by the recent breaking news of a kinda well known public figure that frequently appearing as actress in filmtv on one of television channel. She was arrested by the police officers considering her involvement in once online prostitution, where she was being paid around 80 million rupiah for a single date, she was not alone, accompanied by one other woman that sadly I did not really recognize her fame so I had no idea and not really bothered she was also got arrested the same time.

First thing first, I am not against any act of sexual activity by other people that I don’t even know whether they’re coincidentally a public figure or just another regular citizen. I don’t care. But prostitution is illegal in this country, offline or online, but you know we know that it is everywhere around us.

Every one of us desire to do such pleasure activity, some people do it, which is technically okay because it is their body so they can actually do whatever they want about it. But here in Indonesia, we have so called social norm and moreover religion norm, with that being said, any of those related non appropriate act will be judged and associated as bad people, making some other people, probably you and me, wish to do it but do not dare to do so. And some other people do it secretly silently.

This very country of ours is just too amazing that someone’s problem is everybody’s problem and that is pretty much the fact you like it or not. Sometimes I think that we are becoming more Arabic than the real Arabian countries in some cases, we may also speaking foreign languages as good as the native speakers of that certain foreign countries that being spoken. Absorbing external element and make it our own is our best skill somewhat.
