Phuong Hang used to livestream objectionable about Vy Oanh’s children: Children’s rights must be well implemented on social networks!

This is the view of National Assembly member, Assoc.

National Assembly member, Assoc. Dr. Bui Hoai Son

How do you evaluate the fact that the authorities have prosecuted and detained Nguyen Phuong Hang for abusing democratic freedoms to infringe upon the interests of the State, rights and interests of individuals? ?

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Hoai Son: I think the law enforcement agency has performed its function properly. This is a story that has been noisy for a long time and needs to be handled in accordance with the spirit of the law, to avoid persistent disputes that are not resolved definitively, negatively affecting the cultural environment. of society.

When we have sufficient legal grounds, notably the Law on Cybersecurity and Decree 72 on management, provision and use of Internet services and information on the network, any violation Any offense committed by anyone will be dealt with. That will create trust and exemplary lessons, from which we hope to make the network environment healthy in particular, the cultural environment in general, and help the country’s sustainable development.

In some of her livestreams, Hang mentioned the son of singer Vy Oanh. Not only Ms. Hang, but also a Doctor of Law University, an English teacher and another yotuber all accompanied with uncultured language when commenting on the origin of a baby’s birth. Is this right in your opinion with our morality and law?

Assoc. Dr. Bui Hoai Son: Currently, on social networks, there are many acts of giving information, sharing inappropriate images, even seriously violating the privacy rights of others, in which it is worth noting that there are children’s rights. These are actions that are not only deserving of legal condemnation, but especially moral condemnation.

Ms. Nguyen Phuong Hang and the guests had offensive words when talking about the “origin” of singer Vy Oanh’s son.

Children are a special object, very sensitive to the impacts of life, with a long future ahead of them, so they are always the object of protection of the whole society.

In 2016, the National Assembly promulgated the Law on Children, which emphasized principles and measures to ensure the implementation of children’s rights as well as the responsibilities of agencies, organizations, educational institutions, families and individuals. in the implementation of children’s rights.

The law also clearly stipulates that children have an inviolable right to privacy, personal secrets and family secrets in the best interests of children, to have their honor and dignity protected by law, to be protected by law. protect and combat unlawful interference with private information.

In terms of culture, we always want to have a positive and happy cultural environment around our children, so that we can form citizens who love the values ​​of truth – goodness – beauty, development. overview.

I really like a quote from someone that: There is no clearer picture of the soul of a society than the way that society treats children. That’s why we always want everyone to treat children well as a way to make society better.

Improper, non-child actions are not only a violation of the principles of the law, but are more harmful than a violation of the principles of morality.

Many parents worry about the status of deviant behavior on social networks (MXH) with “cyber gangsters” that will affect the culture and personality of their children. So, in your opinion, what needs to be done to protect children from accessing these non-standard cultures?

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Hoai Son: Children are in the age of character formation, so it is clear that negativity on social networks will also negatively affect children. This negative information can lead to low self-esteem, shyness, depression, aggression or many other psychological disorders.

Meanwhile, social networks are often an indispensable information channel for many children. I have always emphasized that the nature of social networks is neither good nor bad.

The invention of social networks was only with the original purpose of making people’s lives more convenient, but the way we use it will bring different effects or harms. It’s also how social media affects children.

Therefore, in order for children to develop healthily along with social networks, do not approach inappropriate cultures on social networks, in my opinion, using prohibition measures is only the last solution and less effective. Best. What we need to do is build a healthy, safe, positive social network for the development of children.

Although less punitive, I am very pleased with the Code of Conduct on social networks issued by the Ministry of Information and Communications. Principles such as respect, safety, health, responsibility for children’s rights need to be understood and implemented well on social networks by everyone, thereby forming a public opinion against wrongdoings. crime related to children.

In addition, we also need to strictly handle and set an example for cases of violations of children’s rights. All will help us have a favorable environment for the development of children – the future of the country.

Thank you Sir!
