00:00Q. Can I ask about sharing things? Like, FITRANS has enacted a new law which was enacted in February about sharing things, about parents and elders sharing the details of their children.
00:13So what do you think about that?
00:15We have not really been encouraging that. You can see from our, even from our TV, to discourage parents to show and to share it with the people out there.
00:30You know, the children are supposed to be protected and then the perpetrators might take opportunity from there to do whatever they feel that they can do by those parents who are sharing.
00:43So, no, we should not allow that but if there's any need for us to come up with law, we will look into that as well.
00:54Because after all, our Akhtar Kanak-Kanak, we'll try to see if we can add on to that. We are now amending our Akhtar Kanak-Kanak.
