Jakarta SWALK Horror! Valentines “Could Lead To Kisses…!”
Ayo, S.W.A.L.K!
Those were the letters which one would scrawl on the back of the envelope in which Valentine cards were lovingly placed – back in the day, back in the Old Country.
- ooooooooooooooo
- In those days, a card was seen as sufficient proof of true love, and given the fact that it was ‘sealed with a loving kiss,’ the recipient would see no need for any gift as further evidence of devotion.

Nor does Tuty Alawiyah, top lady gun of the Islamist MUI, the Indonesian Council of ‘Scholars!’ She is seriously hostile to Valentine presents.
Fair enough, love needs no fancy expensive tokens to prove itself.
But surely, though, a few chocs and flowers never go amiss!
NO!
Tuty has deep, dark suspicions – “The purpose of presents might be negative, it could lead to kisses and other things,” Tuty said.
Other things? Like what? Holding hands? A cuddle? OMG!
And what the hell is wrong with kisses!
Negative? That’s a weird take on the world.

Could lead to kisses? That’s the whole darned point, Tuty!

Tuty can relax. No card from me this year.
But seriously what plant are these people on.
I read in one of the Jakarta newspapers, this was six years ago,maybe more, that one of their ‘scholars’ was horrified by the filthy foreigner habit of taking off clothes before making love.
How did he find out? In his scholarly texts, I suppose.
I laughed for days about that.
But they are VERY backward.

Very funny, Ross, and very true how these MUI always hate the day of love.
Every year, same stupid stories in our newspapers, fanatics who think women so very lower than men, why can Tuty be any part of this council? She thinks that kissing is so bad, what will she say to MUI men who want FGM?
SWALK to you tomorrow.
