Perspectives are different among cultures
Our perspective about assault, or sexual thing, is different among cultures; and maybe some cultures are very sensitive about [these issues]. So it will be very, very great if in this policy they will have - how can I say - more definition about sexual assault in different culture. 'Cause sometimes in this culture they're not consider [...] a particular thing to be sexual, but in other culture they will see it as sexual assault. So it will be very great if they have more information about that.
