One of the best is to publicly announce you have married a 12-year-old and intend to take a 9-year-old and a 7-year-old in the near future as wives. In most places this would be serial pedophilia and the perpetrator would be investigated and prosecuted and hopefully jailed. It should be noted that this is not an attack on Indonesia alone. I have written about the child bride practice in Yemen here. You can find other commentary he
