Atty. Kenneth Lim was invited as one of the resource speakers in the Symposium and Information Drive hosted by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines – Zamboanga del Norte Chapter last September 19, 2023 at Siari John H. Roemer National High School.

          He lectured on “Avoiding Cyber Libel on Social Media” in which he discussed the elements of cyber libel and how it is committed and proved. He provided practical examples to determine where a social media post is libelous or not. He ended the lecture with the ethical use of social media.

          His second lecture is entitled “Bawal ang Bastos: Navigating the Safe Spaces Act” in which he defined gender-based sexual harassment and public spaces. He enumerated and provided examples of the acts being punished by the law. Atty. Lim cited recent cases and practical scenarios to highlight the law’s application. He summed up the lecture sharing with the students tips on how to gather evidence, where to file a complaint, and what moral lessons the law seeks to impart to us.

          This Symposium was organized by the IBP – Zamboanga del Norte Chapter in celebration of Philippine Law Day, which is celebrated in the whole country on September 19 of every year.
