Abstract

KAPIT, 29 November 2024 – In a groundbreaking initiative to address the challenges of an aging population, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH), and the World Health Organization (WHO) have successfully implemented the My Occupational Engagement Home Program (MyHOeME) in Kapit, Sarawak. With Malaysia projected to become an aging nation by 2030 and Sarawak expected to reach this milestone even earlier by 2028, the program aims to support older persons by addressing physical, mental, and social needs. The initiative comes at a critical time when 15% of Sarawak’s population will comprise older persons, facing challenges such as chronic health conditions, cognitive decline, and emotional struggles.
