Indonesian decree

Indonesia’s president will sign a decree authorizing the use of chemical castration to punish pedophiles following a string of headline-grabbing child sex crimes.

Indonesia will join a small group of nations that allows such punishment, including Poland, Russia, and Estonia, as well as some US states. In 2011, South Korea became the first Asian country to use chemical castration as a punishment.
