Following the latest disclosure of child sexual abuse figures, Kulai MP Teo Nie Ching has urged for sex education to be taught in preschools immediately.

She said sex cannot be treated as a taboo subject in order to protect children.

“Sex education has been implemented in many developed countries and we have a need to follow suit in order to prevent more tragedies like Richard Huckle and many more sexual abuse cases at home,” she said in a statement today.
