The survey findings showed that over eight in 10 respondents obtained a "moderate to high family resilience" score, which means their families would be able to recover from challenges together.
The survey findings showed that over eight in 10 respondents obtained a"moderate to high family resilience" score, which means their families would be able to recover from challenges together.LinkedIn
Their level of family resilience was measured using a 32-item questionnaire with a response set ranging from 1 to 5 . The overall score for family resilience for each respondent was derived from the mean of their responses to the 32 items, with higher scores indicating greater family resilience. It was conducted through face-to-face and door-to-door surveys, with fieldwork carried out between the fourth quarter of last year and the first quarter of this year.
Out of the survey’s respondents aged 65 years old and above, 82.5 per cent reported that they would turn to their families for help when they need physical support such as caregiving or assistance with running errands. “While the rate for Muslim marriages remained higher than that of civil marriages across all cohorts, the gap has narrowed significantly for more recent marriage cohorts,” it added.
MSF’s report also found that full-day infant care places increased nearly threefold over 10 years, while median fees and out-of-pocket expenses declined.
