Asia Pacific Remains Hot Spot For Child Exploitation
Malaysian National News Agency reports:
Despite some progress in recent years in addressing the problem of sexual abuse of children in East Asia and the Pacific, much more needs to be done to address child exploitation as the region remains a hot spot, experts said.
Anupama Rao Singh, UNICEF’s Regional Director for East Asia and the Pacific, said the region’s governments need to take their anti-exploitation efforts to another level and push through much tougher anti-child sex measures.
