CASE : CHILD ABUSE !

WHAT WENT WRONG ?

• There are A LOT of unregistered childcare centres according to previous media


reports, with a total of 1,685 since 2014. JKM statistics stated that from June 2015 to
June 2017, there were 581 cases of child abuse by daycare/childcare centres. The
figures could have been higher since unreported occurrences are not included.
• Children tied up in a daycare centre in Bandar Baru Bangi.
WHAT WE CAN DO :

 Parents should always check with the JKM whether the daycare centre is registered or
unregistered.
 Make police report so that further action can be taken against the daycare centre.
 Teach the child about good touch and bad touch so that the child will be able to protect
herself or will know to inform the parent.
 The Ministry of Health plans to set up a childcare centre in every hospital for children aged 6
years and below. It’s also said that it will operate for 24 hours a day to cater to the needs of
many public servants in hospitals and several govt agencies, particularly those who work by
shifts. (this was said by the current govt on 8th august 2018 )
