ISKANDAR PUTERI: The government will continue to address domestic violence issues despite a slight drop in reported cases this year, says Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad.
“Despite the implementation of the Domestic Violence Act 1994 and various government initiatives, many survivors of domestic violence, along with their children, still face difficulties in accessing the necessary resources and support. "This is why efforts from both the government and the community must come together to ensure that women and families across Malaysia receive the support they need to thrive,” she said.
