Indonesia’s president, Joko Widodo, ordered parliament, to delay the confirmation of the criminal code bill. He had decided the bill needed further review after taking into account input from various groups who objected to parts of it, he added. Many human rights groups have criticized the law to criminalize consensual sex outside of marriage and will also make same-sex relations illegal.
