MATARAM - The Office of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (DP3A) of Mataram City, West Nusa Tenggara Province, provides assistance and rehabilitation to a karaoke guide or LC (ladies companion) who is a minor. The head of the Mataram City DP3A, Dewi Mardiana Ariany, said that the LC of a minor was still in junior high school who was being assessed for psychological assistance. "The child was caught in a local police raid at a dimly lit cafe around Mataram City some time ago," he said in Mataram, Antara, Friday, May 17. Providing assistance in accordance with the results of DP3A coordination with the Women and Children Service Unit (PPA) of the Mataram Police Satreskrim, aims to strengthen so that the victim is no longer an LC. Dewi admitted that she regretted the practice of employing minors as LC karaoke, especially since the underage LC was found through police raids. "Therefore, in this case, parental supervision of their children is very important as a measure to anticipate the same thing," he said. On the other hand, Dewi also hopes that karaoke supervision will be carried out more strictly with other relevant agencies, such as the Mataram City Satpol PP and the Manpower Service. Another step taken by DP3A to anticipate the same thing is to actively carry out socialization to schools and make other prevention efforts. "For junior high school students, we provide paring activities while high school is carried out by the Provincial DP3A according to their authority," he said. It's just that, he said, the socialization activities that have been carried out certainly cannot be maximized without the participation of parents and family. Therefore, he also reminded parents and families that they have an important role in making prevention efforts and providing character education.
"The character education is not only at school, but starting from the family," he said.
