For the “Social Media Smart Counseling” activity, it will be held on:

Name of Activity : Smart counseling on social media
Location : Online Meeting
Time : January 4, 2022

The advantage of this activity is that we want residents to be able to minimize the spread of false information or hoaxes on social media that can cause panic and chaos in the community. Many cases of hate speech can provoke the anger of others and lead other people’s opinions to hate a thing and the spread of privacy can lead to fraud and put the victim’s life in danger. In addition, we also want to minimize the occurrence of cyber bullying on social media which can cause mental disturbances for victims. In addition to hoaxes and cyber bullying, the rise of online fraud during this pandemic has become an important problem in society.
