Editor:
Year: 16/05/2026
Abstract: In Malaysia, the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) has declined to 1.6 births per woman (2024), which is below the replacement level of 2.1. Over the past decade, the world has experienced significant demographic and cultural changes, particularly in family structures, including declining fertility rates and shifting norms around marriage. Globally, there is a growing trend of individuals choosing not to have children – not due to infertility or delayed marriage, but based on personal choice. This study aims to explore the contribution of childfree and childless women to fertility decline in Malaysia. The findings show that childfree and childless women experience non-motherhood differently, with childfree women often associating it with autonomy and emotional fulfilment, while childless women experience greater emotional vulnerability and social pressure.

Socio-demographic determinants of fertility intention among reproductive-age adults in urban Malaysia
Item Type: Scientific Poster
Editor:
Year: 00/11/2025
Abstract: Malaysia’s total fertility rate (TFR) dropped to 1.6 children per woman in 2022, with Kuala Lumpur reporting the lowest at 1.2, well below the replacement level. Sustained low fertility threatens future labour force replacement, healthcare sustainability, and family support sustems. Urban pressures such as high living costs, work-life imbalance, and housing challenges further discourage childbearing. Despite these concerns, there remains limited empirical evidence on how socio-demographic factors influence fertility intentions in Malaysia’s Urban population. This study examines the socio-demographic determinants of fertility intention among adults in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s lowest-fertility region.

Low fertility, high stakes: demographic and economic implications of Malaysia’s fertility decline and the case for a National Fertility Insurance Policy
Item Type: Scientific Poster
Editor:
Year: 00/11/2025
Abstract: Malaysia’s fertility rate has fallen to 1.6 births per woman (2024), below replacement level for more than a decade. This decline is driven by delayed marriage, economic pressures, and limited financial support for infertility care. Infertility affects 1 in 6 adults globally, yet treatment in Malaysia remains largely self-funded, leading to inequalities in access and increased emotional and economic burden. Understanding these barriers is critical to strengthen national demographic resilience. Conclusion, Malaysia’s fertility decline is a multidimensional issue requiring urgent clinical, policy, and economic intervention. The National Fertility Insurance (NFI) framework presents a strategic, sustainable, equitable policy mechanism to improve reproductive health access, sustain population growth, and strengthen socioeconomic resilience. Strategic investment in fertility care can safeguard Malaysia’s socioeconomic future.
