Indonesia is just bizarre. They've got the most draconian and nonsensical laws. The only step up is a full on fascist country like China or russia.

Other than being cheap, I don't understand why so many digi nomads want to live there.

I don't know how much you know about the political history of Indonesia, but it's already pretty much a fascist state.

Check out The Act of Killing. It's brutal.

How come you say that? Genuine question. Seemed to me like the people who did or supported the mass murders of Leftists were still in power.
