Dec. 24 - China plans to set up a "buffer1 zone" around schools, ousting2 commercial entertainment facilities in a bid to better protect its teenagers.
"Commercial singing and dancing establishments, Internet cafes and other entertainment facilities unsuitable for minors3, are prohibited around primary and middle schools," said a law amendment4 tabled to China's top legislature here Sunday.
The draft, which was submitted to the Standing5 Committee of the National People's Congress for the third reading, requires owners of entertainment venues6 to post signs denying entrance of minors.
Adult entertainment facilities near the schools will be closed and those who violate the law will face administrative7 punishment, according to the draft amendment to the law on the protection of minors.
The amendment does not specify8 the punishments. The current administrative rule says Internet cafes that admit minors can be fined up to 15,000 yuan (US$1,900).
The draft also said government will encourage development of technologies to stop minors from becoming Internet addicts9.
The new law comes amid increasing concern about an upsurge in juvenile10 delinquency. In 2005, more than 70 percent of the country's robbery cases were committed by juveniles11.
In a bid to combat juvenile delinquency, China launched a nationwide campaign in 2004, called "For Tomorrow", aiming to enhance law awareness12 among young people and encourage them to be disciplined and law-abiding.
In July 2006, the Chinese government issued regulations concerning the environment around primary and middle schools, urging that illegal Internet bars and karaoke bars near schools be closed down.
