As a concerned citizen of the Philippines, I am deeply disturbed by the increasing cases of child sexual abuse in our country. It's personal to me because it's worrying that many minors are being abused, their innocence stolen and lives scarred forever. According to a report by UNICEF, one in five children in the Philippines has experienced sexual violence. This alarming statistic is unacceptable and calls for immediate action.

The government needs to strengthen its efforts towards child protection, ensuring that laws against child abuse are strictly enforced and perpetrators are brought to justice. We also need more resources dedicated towards supporting survivors, including counselling services and safe spaces.

By signing this petition, you're standing up against child sexual abuse and demanding better protection for our children. Let us work together to create a safer environment where every child can grow without fear.
