Head of the Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) Hasto Wardoyo asked students in Metro City, Lampung, to avoid free sex. He also hopes that students avoid marriage at a young age to prevent the potential for stunting babies.
"Actually, the targets for the development of Indonesia gold in 2045 are these children later. So children do not have to get married at a young age, and do not have sex outside of marriage," said Hasto during a working visit at SMPN 1 Metro, Metro, Lampung, Monday 6 February, confiscated by Antara.
He asked students, especially those who are currently studying in junior high school (SMP) not to get married at a young age. To realize the golden generation in the future.
"These junior high school-aged children must promise that they will not marry at a young age, and not have sex outside of marriage," he said.
In addition, his party also encourages every school in Indonesia to implement population awareness schools (SSK). Through this SSK, students will be taught about reproduction and plan their future lives.
"Ideally, every school has a SSK. This can be included in extracurricular, if intracurricular hours it is not enough. Then there is a Penjaskes lesson, if the practice can go there related to reproductive health," he said.
According to Hasto, the knowledge of this matter is expected to provide education about reproductive health to school students from an early age.
"The reproductive health lesson is important, because many Indonesian teenagers experience sex irregularities, such as free sex and pregnancy outside of marriage," he said again.
In addition, education about the dangers of sex at this young age can also be one of the efforts to reduce stunting rates in Metro City.
"We want that not to happen so that stunting goes down, mother mortality drops, and baby mortality drops," he added.
He also invites adults to become foster parents for each stunting child in his environment.
"There is also a stunting foster father program, so every adult can care for one child who is stunted," he said.
