Year: 00/03/2025
Abstract: The National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN) established a new framework for family research in Malaysia by introducing the Family Well-Being Index (FWBI) in 2011 to measure the level of family well-being. To continue the effort of measuring and monitoring family well-being, LPPKN conducted the fourth series of the FWBI Study in 2022 and subsequently published the 2022 Family Well-Being Index Report (FWBI 2022).
Out of 8,460 households visited, a total of 5,236 respondents were successfully interviewed, consisting of 2,784 (53.2%) fathers and 2,452 (46.8%) mothers. The majority of respondents were aged between 40 and 49 years, Malay, still married, had secondary education, and resided in urban areas. More than two-thirds (68.9%) of respondents were from the B40 group with a household income of less than RM4,850.00. In terms of family structure, three-quarters (75.3%) of respondents belonged to nuclear households, where the father, mother, and children live together.
The FWBI 2022 showed that the level of family well-being was at a moderate level, with a score of 7.93 out of a maximum scale of 10.00. The 2022 FWBI score recorded an increase of 0.21 points or 2.7 percent compared to FWBI 2019. This improvement was contributed by five domains that scored above 8.00, namely:
(i) Family Relationship Domain (8.44);
(ii) Family, Religion, and Spiritual Practices Domain (8.37);
(iii) Family and Community Involvement Domain (8.24);
(iv) Family and Communication Technology Domain (8.18); and

Abstract: To further enhance research in the fields of population, family, and reproductive health, the National Population and Family Development Board (LPPKN) took a proactive step by establishing the LPPKN Research Grant (GP LPPKN) in 2021. GP LPPKN serves as a platform and catalyst for local researchers to conduct studies in these areas. All findings and inputs obtained through GP LPPKN have been compiled into the Compilation of LPPKN Research Grant Findings 2021–2023.
The publication of the Compilation of LPPKN Research Grant Findings 2021–2023 focuses on population, family, and reproductive health. The main objective of implementing GP LPPKN is to strengthen research in these three areas by producing new theories, holistic policy recommendations, innovative ideas, and creative outputs to enhance the well-being of families and society. A total of 28 researchers from local universities were awarded GP LPPKN grants, consisting of 9 in the field of population, 12 in family, and 7 in reproductive health.
Through GP LPPKN, researchers have successfully produced various outputs such as journal articles, policy briefs, modules, guidebooks, mobile applications, and intellectual property creations. The publication of this report, which compiles the research findings of GP LPPKN recipients, can be utilized and referenced not only by LPPKN but also by policymakers, program planners, module developers, researchers, and the general public in efforts to improve family and population well-being in Malaysia.

Modelling a comprehensive Long-Term Care Insurance (LTCI) plan for societal well-being in Malaysia
Item Type: Scientific Poster
Editor:
Year: 00/11/2024
Abstract: Malaysia is currently going through a demographic transition as an aging country that is affected by two main factors, namely the decline in the overall fertility rate, as well as the increase in average life expectancy. The elderly are often associated with a decline in physical and cognitive abilities, which requires them to seek long-term care. This poses a major challenge for a country facing the phenomenon of population aging, as it impacts society and the government, particularly in economic and social aspects. Accordingly, it is important for Malaysia to immediately formulate a comprehensive strategy to deal with issues related to the aging of the population, particularly in the aspect of long-term care, to ensure the well-being of the people, as well as the sustainability of the country's fiscal management. Data collection for this study was conducted through seven focus group discussion sessions from March to August 2022, where the focus was on the four main aspects of long-term care insurance (LTCI), namely benefits, financing, eligibility, and supply. Taking into account policy makers' targets as well as the country's fiscal and economic situation, this study presents three main recommendations which are i) the implementation of a social insurance plan as a post-retirement benefit; ii) development of care economy; iii) increasing the retirement age limit. These measures are believed to help the country to meet the needs of the Malaysian community in facing the aging population transition.

Abstract: Migration, population redistribution and development are closely interrelated. Uneven population growth and distribution are the results and causes of religion and urban-rural disparities in development. Population distribution has changed significantly since 1970. 22% of the national population resided in Selangor in 2020. Urbanization level increased from 28% in 1970 to 75% in 2020, making Malaysia the second most urbanized country in SEA. This study is based on census reports and UN databases.
