Schools asked to fight online porn
THE Ministry of Education has asked school authorities to lead campaigns to help students ward off the influence of pornography from the Internet or mobile WAP sites.
The ministry also encouraged students in primary and secondary schools to report Internet links and mobile WAP sites that contain "negative information," especially obscene content.
Education departments and schools should carry out activities tailored to different age groups, guide students to "properly handle the cyber world," and enhance their understanding of the negative effect of pornographic Websites, online violence and lewd information, the ministry said on its Website.
The move is the ministry's latest effort to crack down on pornography on Websites and mobile WAP sites.
The ministries of public security and industry and information technology initiated a campaign last August to eradicate lewd content from the Internet.
Students should be taught not to make or spread lewd content online; not to enter Internet cafes; not to access Websites with smutty content; and not to play indecent cyber games, the notice said.
They were also advised not to use offensive and obscene language and be careful when making friends online.
Lewd content includes violence, libel, private and other information that violates standards of public decency.
Public distribution of pornography is illegal in China, and the government last year began to stamp out WAP porn links to shield young people from its harmful effects.
The Ministry of Education also required schools to regularly examine school Websites and install filter software on students' computers.
Teachers should enhance communication with students and counsel those obsessed with the cyber world, the notice said.
The notice also advocated school authorities and parents to work together in helping children establish good Internet ethics.
"Parents should not let their children use the Internet while they are alone," the notice said.
China has more than 338 million Internet users, and more than 60 percent are younger than 30, according to the China Internet Network Information Center.
