| Abstract |
The increase in life expectancy and declining fertility rates have contributed to the rising tide of the ageing population in Malaysia. Undeniably, an ageing population poses the need for policy changes to address the economic and social risks caused. Against this backdrop, it is therefore crucial for Malaysia to give serious attention in developing a policy related to long-term care financing. |
