Children’s representatives spoke
On the sidelines of the official meeting, some child representatives shared their personal views on participating in this activity for the first time.
Nguyen Hoang Thang (HCMC):
It is important for children to have self-defense skills
With Industrial Revolution 4.0, the need for people including children to learn and assimilate technology is quite large. More time spent interacting online, but are children safe online?
It is essential to educate children on the skills to recognize, respond and handle bad situations when they are being influenced and taken advantage of online. Similarly, an educational program is needed to help prevent injuries to children. Especially helping children to know how to protect themselves when faced with bad situations. It requires focus, coordination and participation from all levels and concerned sectors.
Personally, I hope to become a member of the National Assembly in the future and represent my local people, to contribute ideas and recommendations for the construction and defense of the fatherland.
Hoang Tra My (Nghe An):
Hope there will be more free swimming classes
I am most concerned about the problem of children getting injured and drowning. In rural and mountainous areas, summer is very hot, so you often go to lakes, rivers and streams to cool off, and there is a risk of drowning.
I hope that free swimming training will be available for the underprivileged people in remote areas who are not able to learn swimming. It is possible to restrict or engage warning lights and sounds to easily identify dangerous areas for children.
Le Quang Vinh (Hoa Binh):
increase penalties and sanctions sufficiently to deter
The “Children’s National Assembly” session has created learning conditions for us, most importantly, speaking on issues of child protection, care and education, and also inspired us to strive to learn and practice well. Other than this.
I believe that there is a need not only to strengthen the direction for the safety of children in cyberspace but also to bring fundamental solutions in propaganda, dissemination and education. The Ministry of Education and Training should have content related to child protection knowledge online, it should be put out through extra-curricular learning programs and youth association and team activities.
In order to strengthen the responsibility to protect children and prevent child abuse, it is necessary to take adequate preventive measures, punish and deal with acts of taking advantage of the cyber environment to abuse children.
Lua Wan Chi (Lai Chau):
Pay more attention to children in hilly areas
I am interested in the topic of child safety online. In my locality many people use internet but there is no good guidance or control online. Some of you have been trapped in evils, some have been enticed to work for wages.
How to promote parenting to better manage their children online. Personally, I hope that leaders will pay more attention to the children of the Highlands in general and the children of Lai Chau in particular, so that we can have playgrounds, swimming pools and participate in safe experience activities.
