Those are Sewon and Banguntapan sub-district. Three Sub-district Children’s forum which have
already been created become sub-district Children’s Forums are still not running the duties to prevent crimes. This is proven by high level of crime and victims which are still categorized as kids in Kasihan Sub-District. The total amount of victims who are still categorized as kids proves that Bantul Children’s Forum is still not running the duties in full capacity. This happened because the total amount of board members in Bantul Children’s Forum is not proportional with the needs in the district, Bantul Children’s Forum members which still don’t understand the duties written in Bantul Regional Regulation number 3 in 2018about the implementation of child’s protection. Inactive Sub-District
