COMMISSIONS: Sharia Law in post-tsunami Aceh, Indonesia: aceh007

Acehnese women walk along a new jetty created by the tsunami, in Ulele Beach, outside of Banda Aceh, Indonesia, Sunday, Nov. 8, 2009. Most families head to the beaches on Sundays. Although many Acehnese women embrace Sharia, they don’t agree with it. Dozens of women’s clothing stores that have opened since the tsunami, offering a colorful selection of veils and stylized Islamic tunics. As Acehnese women friends have confided, “There is Sharia – but at least there is no war.”
