HO CHI MINH CITY, Jan. 16 (Xinhua) -- Up to 84 percent of Vietnamese students said they felt insecure at school, local media reported on Monday.
Some 80 percent of students said they had suffered from gender-based violence at least once, while 71 percent of students had been affected by school violence over the last six months, online newspaper VietNamNet quoted figures released by the Ministry of Education and Training.
Ngo Minh Quang from the Ho Chi Minh City University of Education said that school violence is on the rise.
Quang and his research team conducted a survey on 200 high school teachers in Ho Chi Minh City, 120 education managerial officers and 1,800 high school students in 12 districts in the city to come to the conclusion, affirming that school violence shows the decadence in the morality of the society in general.
Vu Thu Huong, a lecturer at the Hanoi University of Education, said the major cause is that parents and teachers neglect their duty of giving moral lessons to students, telling them not to disturb others and respect others' personalities.
"If students are taught this, they will have few reasons to fight each other," she said.
