Abstract:  Since the 2nd Malaysia Plan in fact, various efforts have been made by the government to empower the role of women in the labour market. One of that is employers are encouraged to provide childcare centers at work or in nearby areas to support the needs of married women with children. This is because, many studies state that many women quit their jobs when faced with difficulties of managing childcare in addition to the relatively increasing cost of childcare. Therefore, this quantitative study aims to examine the extent to which respondents are faced with the issue of access to childcare and the cost of childcare. The survey distributed online to 362 working mothers across Malaysia found that 55.8% still faced difficulties in finding childcare in their residential areas and 61.3% had problems finding childcare in their working area.

Abstract:  Life can be challenging for single mothers. They are viewed as the most vulnerable social groups in society who often lack educational attainment, skills and social networks; thus, limiting their opportunities to compete in the labour market. Consequently, single mothers struggle to achieve financial independence and to support the well-being of their family. To help single mothers build a better life, it is crucial to provide single mothers with solid institutional support programmes. This paper explores the extent to which the institutional support programmes designed for single mothers are in accordance with the needs and expectation of the single mothers in Sabah. The views obtained from the leaders of the single mother associations show that the support programmes are useful for single mothers; however, the programmes are still inadequate to lift them out of poverty. Suggestions for improvement of the institutional support programmes for single mothers are highlighted.

Abstract:  In Malaysia, Cervical Cancer remains among the top three most common cancers among women aged 15 to 44 years. Although the Malaysian Ministry of Health (MOH) has developed the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination Program since 2007, the level of vaccination reach involving target groups in the country is still at a moderate level and not yet comprehensive. In support of efforts to ensure women’s reproductive health and well-being, the National Population and Family Development Board (NPFDB), an agency under the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development has implemented an HPV vaccination program through Klinik Nur Sejahtera (KNS) nationwide.
