KULAI: The Johor government will continue to spread and instil awareness among teenagers on social issues, especially on pre-marital sex and having a child out of wedlock.

State Tourism, Women, Family and Community Development Committee chairman Liow Cai Tung said it was heartening to note that Johor had recorded a significant drop in baby dumping cases.
