RIAU - Pekanbaru City Education Office (Disdik) ensured that no elementary school (SD) students in their area were members of the WhatsApp (WA) group discussing Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT).
Head of Pekanbaru City Education Office Abdul Jamal conveyed this according to the results of a search conducted by his party at all elementary schools in Pekanbaru, Riau Province.
He admitted that he had also confirmed to the Riau Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Agency (DPPPA) regarding the issue.
"I've been looking for information on the group's news, but it's not true. I've also asked the schools, nothing," he said in Pekanbaru, Tuesday, June 20, which was confiscated by Antara.
This was said by Jamal in response to the excitement of the issue of elementary school students in Pekanbaru joining the WA group to discuss LGBT.
It's just that from the beginning the issue blew in the news, none of them mentioned the SD in question.
According to the Riau DPPPA, the news emerged because there was a miscommunication with the first party who wrote the news about the WA LGBT group of elementary school students.
Jamal also admitted that he was not sure that an elementary school student was involved in LGBT behavior.
"Because what we know is that elementary school children have not reached things like that. Usually elementary school children are victims of abuse by adults, not their need for that, that's why I am surprised," he said.

Although the information circulating is certainly not true, Jamal said that the Pekanbaru Education Office will continue to make various efforts to prevent LGBT from entering the school environment. This effort is also in accordance with the direction of Pekanbaru Mayor Muflihun.
"Like Friday, we have asked the school to hold a recitation with the theme of the danger of LGBT," he explained.
Jamal also asked parents to supervise their children's association so as not to fall into actions that violate the rules. "Parents must also often open their children's cellphones. Because we don't know the source, it's difficult for us to determine which one," he said.
