She kept a blog when she was 14, but soon discovered an identical one online - but with defaced photos of her and warped versions of her posts.

Former child actress Kim Wakerman, now 21, said the cyberbully - whom she did not know personally - stopped only when her parents made a police report.

She said: "I started to question myself - what was wrong with me that people didn't like. I felt insecure."

Yesterday, Ms Wakerman, a volunteer with the South East Community Development Council (CDC), attended a youth forum to discuss ways to tackle cyberbullying.

The forum, organised by the South East CDC's Youth-to- Youth Network, was prompted by a Singapore Polytechnic survey involving 800 young Singaporeans. It showed last year that 68.4 per cent had experienced or knew people who had encountered cyberbullying.

Held at ITE College East, the forum's panellists included youth and Ms Jessica Tan, an MP for East Coast GRC.

She said that there should be legislation to deter cyberbullying, and that it is important to provide support to victims.

If you are bullied, "go to someone you trust: a friend, teacher or counsellor. No one can help you unless you speak up", Ms Tan said.

Re: Are you a victim of cyberbullying?

Interesting.

When someone defaces your photos & calls you names on cyberspace, it's called cyberbullying.

When NTUC muscles in & shuts down all the small-time grocery/provision stalls, it's called progress.

Semantics. What would politicians do without them?

I will actually look at it from a self-critical point of view, if this happens to me.

"Why is everyone against me? Something wrong with me?"

It is a good eye and mind opener for those caught in a delusional world of their own.

If someone cannot take cyberbullying, he or she will suffer in real life.

Computer can turn off, but how to take it in school or army or office?

So I think the problem doesn't lie with cyber or non-cyber.

More than hi-bye friend, more than mere acquaintance, but definitely less than a close friend. I am very honest de.

I don't use the words BRO or BUDDY loosely.
