MANILA, Philippines - Professors and faculty members from different colleges and universities urged Congress to strengthen existing laws geared towards protecting children from sex and violence which are prevalent in today’s media. Specifically, educators said that Congress can amend the National Children’s Television Act to lay down sanctions for violators and include clear tax incentives for those who support values education. The call was made by participants at the two-day International Conference on Values and Moral Education held last Nov. 17-18 at University of the Philippines, in Diliman, Quezon City. Participants also underscored the need to amend the Campus Journalism Act in order to promote lifelong skills and be used as an effective tool in the revival of values education programs in schools.
