How can we clean such filth? Hadi says after Asyraf Wajdi's mock offer to 'purify' Umno and DAP in unity govtSUPP Women’s chief Kho Teck Wan Kho said it is time for the government to implement background checks for those working in daycare so parents know that their children are in good hands.
To support her argument, she gave the example of senior citizens who are unable to care for themselves or bedridden, and therefore require caretakers who are patient. “The mandatory security screening will greatly increase the safety and well-being of vulnerable groups in our society,” she said in a statement.
She was responding to a proposal raised by Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri in Parliament yesterday.Kho said she supports the proposal to make security screening compulsory for individuals who want to work as babysitters.“As society progresses where both set of parents are working, more and more babies and young children are placed in full-time daycare centres,” she noted.
Nancy, in replying to a question in Parliament, had said the Social Welfare Department would discuss the proposal to make security screenings compulsory for individuals who want to work as babysitters with the Home Ministry and police.
