| Abstract |
By 2030, Malaysia is projected by the United Nations to reach the ageing country status with 15 percent of the country’s population aged 60 and above. This aging phenomenon is seen to cause a great impact and challenge to the development of the country. Approriate planning is needed to deal with this phenomenon and ensure the well-being of the elderly. This study was conducted to identify the elements of the well-being of the elderly and their level of well-being by making Bandar Baru Sungai Buloh as the study area. |
