The Proposal On The Social Innovation For The Human Population Solution

The Proposal On The Social Innovation For The Human Population Solution.

Prepare by: Jasmin Binti Baharun (D20171078153)(GroupC).

Referring to my title is about the proposal on the social innovation for the human population. Department of Statistics Malaysia in its press release in 2019, states that by 2030, the percentage of Malaysians aged 60 to top is expected to increase to 15 percent. According to the portal myhealth.gov.my, a country will be called an old country when the people are 60 years old and over 15 per cent of the total population. Based on statistics and the definition, it can be concluded that Malaysia will be a country old in a period of not less than 10 years.

The definition of an old country can also be defined to a country when 7 percent of its citizens are aged 65 and above. If according to this definition, Malaysia is actually an old country by 2020 due to estimates released by the Department of Statistics Malaysia (2016) in Population Projection, Malaysia, 2010-2040 expects the number of Malaysians aged 65 and above is 7.2 per cent by 2020. According to data released by the Department Malaysia Statistics (2019), percentage Malaysian population aged 60 years and above has reached 10 percent on year 2018 and expectations of 10.3 percent on 2019. Percentage residents aged 65 and over also increased in 2019, is estimated at 6.7 percent compared to 6.5 percent in 2018. The same goes for middle age statistics in Malaysia, increased to 28.9 years in 2019 compared to 28.6 years in 2018.

So Malaysia must be prepared to face the challenge of becoming an old country. But before it more critical I suggest to do a solution street art called “My Big Family” to encourage our people to increase the fertility. Cause nowadays women tend more to the career than family. So when the street art made widely I believe, little by little the feeling of wanting to have a family is getting stronger. It is called as intrinsic, intrinsic motivation is created naturally from internal stimuli. It consists of the encouragement and interest of individuals to do an activity without expecting or asking for rewards.
