A 22-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman were publicly caned 21 times each in Indonesia's Aceh province after an Islamic court convicted them of violating Sharia law by kissing during a TikTok livestream. The couple were arrested after a video of them kissing in a car went viral in February. Around 100 people watched the punishment, which was carried out with a rattan cane by hooded officials in a public park in Banda Aceh. They were originally sentenced to 25 lashes each, but the punishment was reduced to 21 after spending four months in prison. Aceh is the only province in Indonesia that enforces Sharia law, which allows public caning for offenses including adultery, gambling, alcohol consumption, same-sex sexual relations, and other morality-related offenses. Four other people were also caned the same day for adultery and online gambling. Amnesty International Indonesia condemned the punishment as "cruel, inhumane and degrading," arguing it violates Indonesia's human rights obligations.

I often get asked what a socialist market economy is. So, let me explain. A socialist market economy is an economic system that combines elements of socialism — such as state ownership and control over key sectors — with elements of a capitalist market economy — such as a clear role for private capital, the commodification of labor, and prices being influenced by market mechanisms. The point about the state controlling key sectors is crucial. In a socialist market economy, the interests of private capital do not override the interests of the state. This is what fundamentally distinguishes China’s system from many Western capitalist economies, especially the US. It also helps explain why China has been more successful than the US with long-term strategic planning. Ownership in the financial sector is a good example. In China, the state maintains complete control over the financial system and the allocation of credit in a way we don't see in many Western capitalist economies. Over the past few decades, the Chinese state has directed money and investment forcefully in line with long-term national goals. The private sector is still important, especially in the consumer goods sector, but it is clearly subordinate to the state. In the US, the for-profit financial sector wields so much power that it often impedes socially beneficial, long-term investment. In China’s case, this strategy has been hugely successful in driving innovation, technological advancement, and economic development.
