"With regard to psychological treatment we would refer it to its experts. After they all work I later would come to give them spirit and motivation," she said.
The head of population management, women empowerment and child protection, Antiek Sugiharti, said accompaniment would be given to children individually or in group at schools.
It would be given not only to children but also their friends, she said. "Focus would first be put on schools of victims and perpetrator victims," she said.
