It is a difficult time for many as Malaysia is still beating an unemployment rate of 4.6% in April 2021, and a record of 468 suicide cases between January and May this year. Until the national COVID-19 vaccination program has covered a significant number of the population or concluded, it is difficult to say that the situation will improve any time soon.
