China Imposes Daily One-Hour Limit on Online Gaming for Kids During Lunar New Year Holidays
image by stable-diffusion
Stay connected with your family this Lunar New Year by limiting your child's online gaming to just one hour per day, as per China's Ministry of Education's new regulations.
China's Ministry of Education has announced a new restriction on online gaming for children during the upcoming week-long Lunar New Year holidays. Starting on February 5th, minors will be limited to one hour of online gaming per day. The move is part of an ongoing effort by the Chinese government to combat "internet addiction" among children. The ministry believes that limiting the amount of time children are allowed to play online games will help to reduce the risk of them developing an unhealthy gaming habit. The ministry also announced that parents and guardians should take the opportunity of the Lunar New Year holidays to spend more time with their children. They are encouraging parents to set up family activities such as board games, sports and outdoor activities. The restrictions are expected to be enforced through a combination of parental controls on gaming platforms and monitoring from the government. The ministry has warned that any companies or individuals found to be in violation of the new regulations could face fines or other penalties. The one-hour limit is expected to be in place until the end of the holiday period on February 11th.
