> Also marriage between members of different religions is not possible.

You can. But it's hard. So basically the main requirement of marriage is it must be performed in a religious ceremony. You cannot have a pure civil marriage in Indonesia. So the thing is.... the clerics, the priests are not fond of mixed-marriages. But there are marriages between Buddhist and Catholic, Christian and Catholic, Muslim and Christian. I'm an Indonesian.

Also, there is a loop-hole. You get married overseas and register it in an Indonesian embassy.
