Pembinaan terhadap Anak Korban Persetubuhan oleh Ayah Kandung Berdasarkan Undang-Undang No. 23 Tahun 2002

Abstract

Crime or criminal acts can essentially happen to anyone, including men, women, and children. Children are a group that is highly vulnerable or prone to becoming victims of criminal acts, especially physical violence. This is because children are still weak individuals, unable to defend themselves, and in need of protection and attention from the adults around them. As the next generation, children are the heirs and successors of a nation's future. Therefore, efforts to protect children are of utmost importance. Child protection is an effort to create a safe environment where children can exercise their rights and fulfill their obligations without threats, both physical and psychological. It is also a moral and social responsibility to ensure that children grow up in a healthy, safe, and supportive environment for their development. Protecting children is essentially protecting humanity as a whole because children are the foundational pillars in building the next generation of a nation. If children are not protected from acts of violence, their future—and consequently the future of the nation—will be at risk. Therefore, all forms of actions that support child protection must be a shared priority, whether by families, communities, or governments. Child protection is a long-term investment to produce a generation that is of high quality, possesses strong character, and can contribute to the nation’s development in the future.
