Penambahbaikan Indeks Kesejahteraan Keluarga Malaysia (IKK): berasaskan data LPPKN
Item Type: Conference or Workshop Item
Editor:
Year: 00/07/2026
Abstract: This study aims to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the existing IKK and to suggest strategic improvements that are more responsive and inclusive. The study uses a mixed-method approach, involving secondary analysis of FWI data from 2011-2022, systematic literature review, in-depth interviews with seven expert informants, and a comparative analysis with international wellbeing indices. To address the issue of score instability, the study proposes a strategic shift from purely subjective measurement to the integration of Administrative Data (objective) such as JKM aid statistics, PDRM crime indices, and local authority infrastructure data as triangulation agents. The study also recommends conducting Local Situation Analyses, Longitudinal Panel Studies, and pilot studies of new instruments before full implementation.

Aplikasi model, logik dalam penilaian Dasar PEKERTI: adaptasi pendekatan pemasaran naratif
Item Type: Conference or Workshop Item
Editor:
Year: 00/07/2026
Abstract: This study assesses the current performance of the PEKERTI policy by focusing on the challenges that limit its potential from achieving the set goals. The findings show that the policy’s achievements are moderate and reasonable. PEKERTI faces complex challenges due to the large target group and the varied implementation strategies. Meanwhile, the level of advocacy among agencies is relatively low, and policy implementation monitoring is found to be quite loose. This study suggests that the upcoming PEKERTI 3.0 should reorganize its implementation strategies to be more aligned and focused, while also strengthening advocacy strategies with the involved agencies. Policy implementation monitoring should also be improved through a more efficient data management system. A new narrative for the PEKERTI policy needs to be developed to strengthen public acceptance.

Feasibility of a Household Registry System for the Panel Study of Malaysian Families (MyHoPS)
Item Type: Conference or Workshop Item
Editor:
Year: 00/07/2026
Abstract: This study aims to assess the feasibility of developing a Household Registry System (HRS) to support the Malaysia Family Panel Study (MyIsiRumah). Currently, Malaysia does not have a dynamic, centralized household database capable of tracking socioeconomic changes over time. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines desk studies, expert interviews, system evaluations, and a pilot survey involving 743 respondents, the study found strong public support for the HRS application. The study suggests four strategic pillars: legal reforms, digital infrastructure integration, independent/impartial governance, and phased implementation through the MyIsiRumah pilot study.
