KENINGAU: The unrestricted and uncontrolled use of the internet among children is of great concern because it can lead to online sexual crimes, said Assistant Works Minister, Datuk Robert Tawik, here.
He said the widespread use of various platforms and social media applications without limitations by children who are proficient in using the internet is more worrying and vulnerable to cyber threats and sexual abuse.“They use the internet to meet many people so that sometimes they make the mistake of sharing pictures that irresponsible individuals can use as threats to commit sexual crimes.
Robert, who is also Bingkor Assemblyman, said the issue of sexual harassment is not something new in this country because various cases that occurred are often published in the media.
