State Councilor Chen Zhili stressed in Beijing Friday the establishment of a long-term mechanism to monitor Internet cafes to ensure teenagers' healthy growth.

Although the Internet cafe market order has been improved since a rectification campaign launched last year, strengthening management over Internet cafes remains a long-term and arduous task, she said at a national meeting on the trial establishment of a long-term Internet cafe management mechanism.

In setting up such a mechanism, efforts should be focused on strict law enforcement, monitoring, social supervision and industry self-discipline, she said.

She also emphasized that families and schools should shoulder more responsibilities in educating the young, and parents should be particularly reminded of their foremost responsibilities as guardians of the kids.

Nine cities including Beijing, Shanghai and Chengdu will take part in the pilot program.
