: The number of registered autism therapists in the country is still low, the Dewan Rakyat was told today.
She said that efforts to increase the number of autism therapy professionals require a holistic approach to ecosystem development, involving cooperation between the government and other stakeholders. “The role of regulatory bodies overseeing the practices of autism therapists can also be expanded to improve the quality of care and strengthen public trust in this profession,” she said in response to a supplementary question from Datuk Dr Alias Razak on the shortage of autism therapists during the question and answer session.
Nevertheless, she said the ministry is addressing this gap through the Community-Based Rehabilitation Programme , with 573 centres operating nationwide.
