The Indonesian movement trying to ban dating
Indonesia Tanpa Pacaran, otherwise known as Indonesia Without Dating, is a growing movement that鈥檚 urging young people to quit dating.
Its ultraconservative message is being spread through social media and though the movement is still small, it鈥檚 attracted over a million followers on Instagram alone.
Its leaders say dating is expensive, gets in the way of studying and - most importantly - is against religious teaching. But it's also attracted a fierce backlash from women's rights activists.
