This "proposal" still looks very shiny and bright, but, it will be next to impossible to implement, because there's the lacking in funding, and unless we want our taxes raised, we can't cover all the costs of the proposals to keep the early childhood education scene safe enough for young children! Off of the Newspapers, translated…
The City Government Finds Itself Responsible, the Department of Education, the Social Services Reprimands without Any Limitations, Proposed the Ten Means to Better Guard the Safety in Early Childhood Education
on "paper", in the public places, found online
The sexual assault cases of the preschool in Taipei continued on, the city government officials disclosed, that at the time when it'd started, there were the neglect of the handling of the procedural, the case is moved by the city government of Taipei to the Examination Department to investigate, and the officials who were responsible for evaluating the preschool will be reprimanded, accordingly.
In July of 2022, during Ke's term as mayor, the very first case occurred, at the time, no valid evidence was found, until last July, when the second case happened, that was when the perp was taken into custody, and the society questioned, how many more children had been, sexually molested or assaulted during this period.
The government officials of Taipei pointed out, that soon as the first case had been noted, the Department of Education should take the perp out of his position, and as the primary government agency responsible in overseeing the matter, the Department of Social Services, the Domestic Violence Prevention Center investigated, but found no problem, and only passed the papers to the Department of Education, and not followed up, the Department of Education didn't further examine the reports either.
The city government officials pointed out, that there are six major issues that's surfaced from this case. First, the lack of fluidity of relaying of the information across the department, secondly, the system of reporting of the departments, third, the person responsible was not pulled from the post soon as he was found out, fourth, not enough supervision on the preschool where the incidents happened, fifth, the lacking in sensitivity, the awareness of the investigators, sixth, the passive attitude of the investigators.
The Taipei city government officials pointed out, that the city government will implement the ten regulations, including the individual reported to be in suspicion of sexual assault immediately suspended, termination of hire, and severe punishment, and to set up the cross departmental response, also set up the three levels of reporting, to safeguard on multiple fronts, to expand the notifications of records of the employees with sex crime priors, to set up the bulletins with the punishments, the regulations and rules for child sexual abuse, adding personnel, budgeting more funds, etc., etc., etc.
The city government will strengthen the knowledge of sex crimes to the directors, the early childhood educations in the seminars, and has set up the companionship program for the young children who were sexually molested or assaulted, and finally, suggestions to the Central Government to severely punish these offenders.
And, everything still looked, peachy on paper, doesn't it? But for a case to run through the "programs" it takes, way too, long, and by then, who knows, how many young children would've gotten, raped, molested by these, sex predators in the preschools or kindergartens, and there should be a probationary period of observation for these, early childhood educators, for at least, a whole year, and those who offend should get taken out of the classroom settings, so the children won't be in danger of, getting, assaulted, and the psychological counseling that these young victims are in desperately need of, should be provided to them, FREE of charge by the city government, but that would mean that the taxes are going to, hike up, so…
