dc.description.abstractMalaysia participates in the frameworks of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Regional Action Framework on Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) in Asia and the Pacific to pursue the goals relating to universal birth registration and accomplish them by 2030. Birth registration is a permanent record of a child's existence and an important source of legal identity, population statistics and policy planning, including on public health. From the perspective of children’s health, early and complete birth registration will ensure that children can access health, nutrition and welfare programmes from the start. It also facilitates the collection and compilation of fertility and mortality data. However, the majority of countries in Asia and the Pacific do not have universal and responsive CRVS systems that meet relevant international standards. Using the method of desk review, this study will investigate relevant gaps pertaining to completeness of birth registration in Malaysia using primarily published data and statistics issued by Department of Statistic Malaysia (DOSM) and The Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP). Following the analysis, the study will provide a number of recommendations to ensure that the targets that Malaysia commits to achieve in the context of completeness of birth registration could be met for better progress on the rights and welfare of children.en_US
