Opposition to Indonesian Playboy magazine

Yosef Ardi of Indonesia Today calls the first issue of the Indonesian edition of Playboy magazine a “smashing success” ^[1] despite insistence by some quarters that it is pornographic because it is Playboy. Indonesia Matters agrees ^[2] that the opposition from “predictable quarters” is not necessarily because of the magazine's content (no nudity) but because of prevailing perception. Andry S Huzain says ^[3], “Playboy Indonesia IS Playboy. It is just a series of parade of big boops blonde-naked women with IQ not over fifteen.” A. Fatih Syuhud says ^[4], “If you agree with it, buy it. If you dont, just leave it.”
