Indonesia being in any way LGBT friendly is quite incorrect. No, there is no national law outlawing LGBTQ, however, there is a lot of discrimination, prejudice, hate crimes, etc. Yeah, there are some waria there, in some areas, but in general, it’s not a place you would want to be LGBTQ. Source: Lived there for years, have family there.
To clarify, I meant SE Asia as the region, and I was mentally comparing against Africa or the rest of Asia. It’s not the West, but Thailand and Singapore have legal gay marriage now.
Do I dare ask about which part?

Ah, thanks for the clarification, I agree with you on that point!
I can’t find anything about Singapore gay marriage being legal yet.
