needs to enhance education about gender equality and emotion management after three appalling murder cases were uncovered in a single month.
During an Executive Yuan session on Thursday morning, Lai said even though the country’s judicial system would hold the culprits accountable for their crime, education would be the key to prevent similar tragedies from happening again.
Education about gender equality and emotion management should be reinforced in academic institutions, the family, as well as the entire society, said the premier, adding that schools should also teach students to respect other people, regardless of their lives or autonomy.
Lai said the Ministry of Education and municipal governments should take on those tasks while law enforcement authorities work hand in hand to make the country a safer place. [FULL STORY]
