The Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) has prohibited radio stations from playing 42 songs before 10 p.m, claiming their lyrics were considered immoral.
"So, what is in those 42 songs? For example, they contain words of violence and obscenity or allude to sexuality. This is attributed to Law No. 32 of the Broadcasting Code of Conduct and Standards of Broadcast Programs [P3SPS], which states that radio broadcasting is in the interest of national integrity to build the character and identity of a nation that is faithful and pious," Adiyana Slamet, the head of the West Java KPI, told detiknews.
