| Abstract |
The number of Malaysian families is increasing, but family size is getting smaller. Marriages are increasingly being delayed, especially as the divorce rate has doubled since 2010. The scenario of fertility rate changes in Malaysia shows a declining trend. The crude birth rate in Malaysia also shows a drastic decrease. The rapid decline in fertility rate (TFR) will accelerate the country's aging process. LPPKN services can be one of the effective strategies that can support Malaysia in facing the scenario of declining fertility. |
