children who are included in physical violence victims which is carried out by
Bantul Children’s Forum in this case gave legal protection which is connected with
preventive activity towards crime occurence with varied type of activities with
Bantul Social Service Department and Bantul Children’s Forum which is located
in Bantul District, but, in fact, out of five sub-districts which are used as research
sample, there are children’s forum which are no longer active and have no activity.
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 Child’s
Forum is also affected because there are no specified budgets for Sub-District
Children’s Forum.
