ok i am totally not excusing this or saying it was ok, but I must admit the way that our girls on holiday dress and flirt with the Indonesian boys with acknowledgement from mums is common and can in some small way be the reason this person thought a quick touch was ok. I see girls as young as 10 -12 alone in the streets or on the beach flirting outragously with the local boys and many parents smile and are flattered when thier 'girls' are wolf whistled at and make a joke of it to their girls.
Maybe a little bit of decorum in dress would not go astray either.
