Enough is enough

Do you know? While you are spending two hours watching "Rapunzel", one sexual crime is happening out there. And to your surprise, one out of two victims is just a child.

Child abuse or sexual crimes against children cases could be seen almost everyday on newspaper. This has come to a what-I-call-beast-like stage. According to YB Chong Eng's blog, sexual crimes including rape, sodomy and incest had increased from 2427 cases in 2005 to 4238 cases in 2009. The increase is about 100% and half of the victims were children under 16 years. And what heats me up is that only 4% of the rape suspects are found guilty by court.

Two months ago, a campaign called Kempen Rakyat Pulau Pinang had been launched in Penang to raise the awareness on sexual crimes against children. It aims to bring about a safe society for our children, free from sexual crimes.
