WHAT IS AUTISM?

Understanding Autism

Autistic individuals experience the world in unique ways, perceiving, hearing, and feeling things differently from others. Autism is not an illness or disease, and there is no “cure” for it. If you are autistic, you are autistic for life. For many, autism is an integral part of their identity.
Autism is a spectrum condition, meaning that while all autistic individuals share certain difficulties, it affects them in varying ways. With appropriate support, all people on the autism spectrum can learn, grow, and lead fulfilling lives, shaped by their own choices and preferences.

Prevalence of Autism in Malaysia

Currently, there is no comprehensive data on the prevalence of autism in Malaysia. However, a smaller-scale study conducted by the Ministry of Health on children aged 18 to 26 months revealed a rate of 1.6 per 1,000 children, or approximately 1 in 625.
