        "summary": "The implementation of Government Regulation (PP) Tunas, which restricts social media use for children under 16, has been hailed by DPR Commission VIII member Dini Rahmania as a strategic step to safeguard the development of Indonesia's young generation. She emphasises that this policy should be accompanied by widespread digital literacy education, particularly for parents and children, to mitigate risks such as identity formation issues and diminished family interactions. Rahmania calls for family involvement as the primary educational hub and hopes the regulation fosters real-world interactions over virtual ones, with multi-stakeholder participation key to its success.",

Children need more interaction with parents,\nlearning values of affection, empathy, and responsibility in real life,\nnot just the virtual world,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n<p>She assesses that the involvement of various parties is key to the\nsuccess of implementing the regulation.<\/p>",
