EXECUTIVE OF SUMMARY The reasons that cause domestic violence in Malaysia are discussed in detail in the following chapters of this report. Hot temper, sadness, financial troubles, misunderstandings between couples, and drug addiction are among the five factors mentioned. We've also shown the data and statistics for each factor, as well as contemporary concerns that can be related to those variables, as detailed below. The rest of the summary outlines the subjects we'd like to cover in this data analysis. This report contains data analysis, appraisal, and analysis. Trend analysis employing news stories, Malaysian annual journals, and Malaysian annual statistics are among the methods of analysis. All data is presented in the form of tables and graphs during a three-year period, from 2017 to 2019. We'd like to present a comparison of the increase in domestic violence cases over the last three years in particular.

1.0 INTRODUCTION Our country's diversity of races, religions, and cultures is a key feature. Malaysia is a multicultural nation with a diverse cultural heritage. Malaysia's population is expected to reach 32.7 million in 2020, up from 32.5 million in 2019, with a 0.4 percent yearly growth rate. The fall in the population growth rate is due to a drop in the number of non-citizens from 3.1 million in 2019 to 3.0 million in 2020. This is in keeping with the closure of our national borders and the repatriation of immigrants to their home nations under the Movement Control Order (MCO), which was imposed in response to the global spread of the COVID-19 epidemic. Citizens' population increased from 29.4 million in 2019 to 29.7 million in 2020, maintaining a 1.1 percent growth rate. In 2019, the percentage of the population aged 0-14 years which is a young age fell to 23.3 percent, down from 23.5 percent in 2019. While the whole percentage of people aged 15 to 64 who are working age fell from 69.8% in 2019 to 69.7% in 2020. This is due to a decrease in the number of non-citizens, who were largely foreign employees. Over the same time, the percentage of the population aged 65 and up that are old climbed from 6.7 to 7.0 percent. The proportion of Bumiputera in the population of 29.7 million people increased by 0.3 percentage points to 69.6 percent in 2020, up from 69.3 percent in 2019. However, the population of Chinese and Indians fell to 22.6 percent and 6.9 percent, respectively, while the population of others stayed at 1.0 percent. Finally, Malaysia wants to be a developed country by 2020. To achieve this goal, the administration works tirelessly to boost the country's economy. The industrial sector is one of the areas that can have a substantial impact on the national economy. This sector has the potential to not only grow the Malaysian economy, but also to improve the country's image. The endeavour to grow the industrial sector is critical because the industry provides numerous benefits to the country. Heavy industry, light industry, and tourism are just a few of the industries that operate in Malaysia.

1.1 BACKGROUND OF PROBLEM

a)

Define domestic violence

Domestic violence refers to the victimization of a person who has a romantic or spousal relationship or has had an intimate relationship with him. Domestic abuse recognizes that, regardless of socio-economic background, victims can include any person, race, age, sexual orientation, religion, or gender. Besides, violence against men and women also includes domestic violence. Such crimes may involve a partner being sexually abused, physically, economically, or psychologically. Sexual abuse also takes place when the perpetrator commits or forces the victim without the consent of the victim to engage in sexual intercourse or sexual behavior. This is often marital abuse, sexual assault, physical violence followed by sex forcing, sexual demeaning or even sexual jokes at the expense of the victim. Domestic violence is essentially about power and control. Furthermore, power and control are major issues that cause domestic violence. In addition, domestic violence is committed using power and control by using intimidation, coercion and threats, economic abuse, the privileges of men, children etc. The attempt to control the abused party can be described. The relationship between the two parties and the nature of the abusive acts are legal characterizing domestic violence cases.

1.3 SCOPE Domestic violence produces an unhealthy environment in the home and in society. Because the younger generation will be the ones who run Malaysia in the future, this issue will gradually become a ticking time bomb for them. This study, like earlier investigations, has a Malaysia focused perspective. The data used in this study is secondary data received from the Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) between 2017 and 2019. The goal of this study is to figure out which year had the largest number of domestic violence cases.

1.4 METHOD OF INVESTIGATION Secondary data is being used to gather information for this study. Secondary data for this study was gathered from the Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM), articles, journals, newspapers, data from the Department of Statistics, and books, among other sources. The major goal of this study is to examine the trend and pattern of domestic violence in Malaysia using statistical data, as well as to identify factors that contribute to domestic violence in Malaysia. A bar graph was utilised to describe and analyse the information acquired from secondary data in this investigation.

1.5 LIMITATION

Due to Covid-19, which has been prevalent in our country recently, we will undoubtedly have constraints in completing our report since we work in groups in cyberspace. One of the issues we have is a lack of communication with our teammates. This is because there are a total of 7 participants in this project, and we all reside in different places and are far apart. We only communicate over social media, using apps like Google Meet, WhatsApp, and Telegram. It is a little challenging for us because we occasionally have issues with stopped lines, data shortages, and other issues. Everyone's family setting is different, and it can be tough to devote time to discussion. Then there is the difficulty of locating information, which is a limitation. This is the first time we have done something like this, so it is a new experience for us. In this assignment, we are needed to make graphs and find rates on concerns depending on our country. We were able to overcome this by consulting with our lecturer and cooperating in the search for knowledge. Finally, we are constrained by a shortage of time. This is since we have a lot of other tasks to prepare for. We also have a limited amount of time to complete assignments and prepare for classes. The environment at home can sometimes take a long time to prepare tasks. However, we make every effort to complete these tasks.

2.0 DISCUSSION ON DATA ANALYSIS 2.1 Factors that contributing to domestic violence

2.1.1 Hot tempered. There are many causes associated with domestic violence. It can be divided into environmental and individual factors. Those who grew up in an atmosphere of abuse, either witnessed or were victims of abuse and those who were taught not to respect women or feel women were inferior; has a high potential to commit domestic violence. MARA University of Technology Senior Lecturer and United Kingdom Counselling Practitioner, Dr. Airil Haimi Mohd Adnan said, anger is a natural and automatic response to physical pain or usually due to emotional disturbances. accepted, threatened, or perhaps saddened by the sense of loss that occurred in his life. Regardless of whether it is an external or internal factor that irritates a person to get angry, the effect of the ‘hot wind of anger’ Hot temper has been identified as the main contributor to domestic violence cases in which men are involved in family matters. It has an emotion that is especially difficult to control when someone is in a state of anger.

Many cases of abuse and crime that occur stem from the hot temper style. One of the problems is the increasing cases of domestic violence and can also lead to the death of the couple. For example, forcing a partner to do something bad, hitting for no reason, using a partner's money without permission and such attitudes. emotions. Most abusers are men. If husbands like things like this in their married life, unknowingly the hot temper that is in them will cause them to take external action against each other.

Axis Title

In an article published in the form of news as the figure shows, Berita Harian, the latest one also revealed the results of the study, Deputy Minister of Women, Family and Community Development, Hannah Yeoh, who said that statistics in 2019 showed hot temper or failure to control anger recorded 71 cases involving victims, women, and 14 men. While in 2017 and 2018, showed the same reading of 137 cases. Such violence differs from other forms of violence in that it includes not only external abuse, such as bruising and so on, but also internal abuse, which can harm the partner's health. Because of the pair's hot-tempered demeanour, the couple will be subjected to many sorts of abuse. Psychological and emotional abuse, such as threats, insults, and insulting women, for example, can have an impact just as harmful as physical abuse because it jeopardizes the woman's self-esteem and sentiments, as well as her capacity to regulate her own life. Physical abuse includes things like beating, punching, slapping, biting, and even using weapons. Blocking basic human needs like food, drink, sleep, and shelter is also a kind of physical abuse. According to a study on the three races in Malaysia, the reason for domestic violence is fiery temper, according to an organization called the Melaka State PAS Youth Council DPPNM. This hot temper is indeed capable of having a very negative effect on the abused partner as they may experience a lot of pain because of the abuse. The danger of this stress is that it cannot only affect our quality of life, but also people around us such as family and close friends can also be affected by it. A close example is violence in the household itself and if not handled properly can cause all sorts of diseases and adversely affect their bodies. In fact, the abuser will also experience a symptom that can push him towards stress and in turn can increase the 14

risk of hypertension. Both will have long -term and short -term effects. In the survey in data collection and statistics from the Ministry of Health Malaysia in the National Health and Morbidity Survey in 2019 on high blood pressure in Malaysia also stated that 3 out of 10 or 6.4 million Malaysians suffer from hypertension which is too sharply rising statistics and men are 3 times more likely to suffer from it than women. This can prove again and has to do with their hot temper towards the partner that encourages the occurrence of high blood pressure. Hypertension is also known as the "silent killer" because it often does not show any signs or symptoms, and many are still unaware that they have hypertension. However, this disease is also one of the factors that can increase a person's risk of developing ischemic heart disease which is also a disease that has recorded the highest number of deaths in Malaysia each year until 2019.

The graph above depicts the major cause of mortality in Malaysia, ischemic heart disease, which has seen an increase in the number of fatalities of these patients each year from 2017 to 2019, according to statistics compiled by the Malaysian Department of Statistics. This type of disease, which is linked to the heart, can lead to mortality, and the majority of those affected 15

are men. In 2017, there were 9496 overall deaths owing to this disease, 12510 in 2018, and 16325 cases in 2019.

2.1.2 Depression According to the World Health Organization (WHO), depression is a widespread 3 that affects over 264 million individuals around the world. It is marked by a chronic sadness and a lack of interest or pleasure in formerly rewarding or pleasurable pursuits. It can also cause sleep and appetite disturbances, as well as fatigue and impaired focus. Depression is a primary cause of disability worldwide, and it contributes significantly to the global illness burden. Depression's consequences can be long-lasting or recurrent, and they can have a significant impact on a person's capacity to function and live a fulfilling life. We may all suffer symptoms such as sorrow, loss of interest, lack of enjoyment from daily activities, and so on at some point in our life. For the most part, these symptoms are a perfectly typical reaction to unpleasant or stressful circumstances, such as the end of a romantic relationship or financial difficulties. Negative sentiments are frequently severe and overwhelming at first, but they fade away as time passes. However, if these sentiments persist, they may have a significant impact on people's lives and lead to despair. In addition, National Domestic Violence Hotline stated in their website that though abusive actions are most common in intimate partner relationships, an abusive spouse is likely to hide their negative or damaging actions from colleagues, co-workers, as well as family members. An abusive partner often wears a "false mask" to conceal his or her real self from the rest of the world. Abuse and mental illnesses like depression have a lot in common. There have been reports of people suffering from mental illness abusing their partners. There are also many people with mental illnesses who have supportive and healthy companions. The table below shows the data and number of depression cases in Malaysians from the Department of Social Welfare Malaysia and the Malaysian Institute of Health for the three years from 2017 to 2019.

In comparison to the previous two years, the bar chart above shows a significant growth in 2019. The number of cases in 2017 are 14 cases which are 0.25% but the number significantly dropped in the year of 2018 which has 3 cases and the percentage are 0.06%. However, the numbers rose to 33 cases in 2019 and the percentage is 2.3% due to the pandemic. The occurrence of the Movement Control Order (MCO), where the closure was complete throughout the country, was one of the noteworthy explanations for the increase in the population during the year. Several Malaysians have lost their jobs because of this. The Covid19 virus is likewise par...
