Blackpink sensation Lisa has once again set her fans’ hearts aflutter with new posts on her Instagram this weekend of her hot and sexy photos in a colourful bikini.

PUTRAJAYA: Individuals who are aware of sexual abuse involving children but fail to lodge a police report can be fined up to RM5,000 under the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017 , if found guilty, says Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said.

The Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department said in efforts to curb sexual offences against children, enforcement measures need to be aggressive and firm, including charging those close to the victims like teachers, and neighbours who may be aware of such occurances, under Section 19 of the Act.

"I want to aggressively promote community awareness involving sexual abuse of children because if family members, teachers or neighbours are aware of such incidents and refuse to intervene, it would add on to the victim’s predicament as they might feel there is no one they can turn to,” the de facto law minister said after launching the eKlinik 6G, here Monday .

According to Section 19 of the Act, anyone who is aware of sexual abuse against children but fails to report the matter to the police can be charged in court and if convicted, fined up to RM5,000. Azalina said she will be meeting police officers in the Sexual, Women and Child Investigations Division , Royal Malaysia Police, and court authorities involved in enforcement of the Act and later meet the Children's Commissioner to discuss ways to improve community awareness programmes.T'ganu to issue special permit for diving at Pulau Kapas shipwreck
