00:00The recent kidnapping of 6-year-old Albertine Leo has made national headlines.
00:08Although she was found safe and has been reunited with her family, a slew of recent missing
00:12person cases are forcing parents to face the unsettling reality that their neighbourhoods
00:17might no longer be safe.
00:20James Nyagam of Suriana Welfare Society said there is an urgent need for residents to establish
00:25stronger bonds in their local communities.
00:29He said kidnappings have been less common in rural areas where communities are more
00:33tightly knit.
00:34In contrast, he said, families in urban areas often suffer from social isolation.
00:40Childline Foundation Executive Director Wong Hoi Hong also highlighted the need to foster
00:45a sense of mutual care for one's neighbours.
00:49She said it is essential for communities and public spaces to be designed with children's
00:53safety in mind.
00:55Meanwhile, James also urged parents to keep an eye out on their children's activities
01:00both on and offline to reduce the risk of them falling victim to predators.
