State Government urged to seek Putrajaya’s help on street kids issue
Goh said in 2016 under the previous Barisan Nasional (BN) Government, the Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Rohani Abdul Karim told the Dewan Negara that her ministry would look into addressing the street kids issue. 
Kota Kinabalu: The State Government should seek the Federal government’s help and take a multipronged approach to thoroughly address the perennial street kids issue, said Federation of Chinese Associations Sabah President Tan Sri T.C Goh.

Hoping that the Federal Government could provide its full support, Goh called on the State Government and the local authorities to establish a special committee, to thoroughly study the issue and create both short and long-term measures to fully resolve it.

In the same vein, Goh welcomed the State Government’s recent move to build a temporary shelter for the street kids in the State Capital, where they will be housed for a maximum of three months and teach them community living skills.
