00:00 We see the problem of social poverty, especially when sexual behavior has started at the early age of 13 years.
00:28 This requires several actions by the Ministry, including adding learning time on reproductive.
00:44 This is to raise awareness among students and students about the wrongdoing of sexual behavior
00:57 and the effects that will cause social poverty as I stated.
01:07 Therefore, the members of the meeting agreed to raise this issue to the Cabinet
01:17 so that the Cabinet can discuss the drastic measures that must be taken
01:28 based on the information provided by Minister Datuk Seri Nansi.
01:37 This issue is very worrisome.
01:42 Unfortunately, this incident is too high among the countries, namely the Islamic Republic of Mecca.
01:51 This is not a political problem, but a social problem.
01:59 We must find a way to end this.
02:06 This issue is because those who are involved in sexual activities are the age group that we officially call 13.
02:19 Some are even younger.
02:22 This is a bit worrying for us.
02:26 We have an agency under KPWKM called LPPKN, which is more focused on health.
02:39 We use LPPKN and the KFTEEN program, which includes young people,
02:49 so that we can manage and deal with issues like this.
03:01 The Cabinet must raise this issue to the Cabinet so that it can support the government in its decision-making.
03:13 If we just propose a program, there is no problem.
03:16 But the problem is that we need to go to the schools and other places to make a decision.
03:24 That's all. Thank you.
