TAWAU: Children as young as primary school age are reminded not to arbitrarily disclose everything in their social media accounts such as Facebook, TikTok, Instagram or Twitter to avoid becoming victims of crime, especially sexual crime.

Tawau Division’s Social Welfare Officer, Sarina Musa said, such actions were very dangerous and have a long-term negative impact, especially on the emotional well- being of young and immature victims.

“In today’s technological age, it is not surprising if every house has not one unit. Even everyone in the house has a mobile phone regardless of the B40 or M40 group... “However, be careful in using this gadget,” she said.
