00:00Yesterday, the Sasdangwan Minister said that 26.8% of the children were affected by JSBH.
00:07Do you have any comment on that?
00:08Yes, actually, ever since when they came in, they went through the medical check-up first.
00:18The medical check-up first, at the centre where we gathered them all.
00:24So, from there, quite a number of matters.
00:29The counsellors were already there, and KKM was also there.
00:32So, it is not a new story. It is something that has been going on.
00:36You might want to know what the government is doing, not just for them.
00:40But actually, we have a committee that is chaired by TPM-1
00:47about these children in need, especially in Putrajaya, that's the most.
00:53And KKM is the secretary for that particular committee.
00:58And the government is not only looking, but taking action into this,
01:04especially on the food, the kind of food.
01:07And then there is a study on why, especially in Putrajaya.
01:12So, there were some reports on that, information on that.
01:18So, the GISB case is not just about helping, but there is also corruption.
01:25I think I have also reported on that, but we don't widely report on that
01:29because we are taking action through our counsellors.
01:33We have already taken action.
01:37That's why, before the case was brought to the court,
01:44we were allowed to protect them or send them back.
01:49That's why we need to get them to go through the medical examination.
01:58So, that's the thing.
02:00But how old are most of them?
02:03I can't remember exactly.
02:07Because they are across the board, some are below 18.
02:11So, there are a lot of them.
02:13And there are a few types that we can provide.
02:18So, in terms of age, I cannot give you now.
02:21Unless, if we get it, if we get it, we can promise I'll get our side to check.
02:26Because we have to check the whole thing that is in our protection.
02:32So, the women are the victims in the GISB case?
02:37If the women are below 18, they are under us.
02:41If they are above 18, they are not under us.
02:44They are under the police.
02:46So, that's why we need to take the time that day.
02:49We need to look into the people who are with us.
02:54If they are above 18, we have to get them out.
02:57Get them out and return them to the police.
02:59So, if they are guilty, the police will deal with them, not us.
