Women’s Ministry to continue educating children against falling prey to paedophiles, says minister

KUCHING, Sept 5 — The Ministry of Welfare, Community Wellbeing, Women, Family and Childhood Development will continue educating children and creating awareness on not falling prey to paedophiles.

To her knowledge, paedophiles focus on children’s area of weaknesses such as children preferring online games but have no access to a smartphone device. Fatimah said her ministry has counselling services for victims but it would not be easy to reach out to them.“And there is a lot of stigma which makes it even more traumatic for these victims especially when it involves teenagers. They may be bottled up and sometimes even the parents find it difficult to reach out to them.”

“There were times when the parents would WhatsApp or call me personally for advice, other times we came in upon receiving information from the police.”
