Games are bad only when the line between entertainment and obsession is breached. 

Cyber Wellness - it's not just about internet-safety, it's about a balanced reality.

As youth are increasingly spending more time online, Persatuan Kebajikan Generasi Gemilang will address many issues both parents and students face today, such as gaming-addiction, cyber-bullying, the dangers of pornography, and how to respect and maintain one's privacy in everything from Blogs and e-mails to Facebook and other forms of social networking. Parents will be able to discuss these issues openly and address them accordingly. The goal during these sessions is in creating an open and healthy cyber culture that will enable families to get connected and to stay connected with each other.

Cyber Wellness is a two-fold approach. Coming from the Cyber Generation itself, are people who will address these issues from a standpoint of experience, understanding and relevance. And on the other hand, approaching them from a standpoint of balance, reality, and a wholesome lifestyle.

The targeted groups for these sessions are adults, parents, leaders, mentors, decision-makers and people who have a heart for the digital generation. If that's you, this is for you.

With the increase of technology, the need for a balanced lifestyle continues to grow and is becoming exceedingly more important more than ever.
