In the release of the Main Findings for the 2019 National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS2019) by the Ministry of Health Malaysia (KKM), findings show that as many as 424,000 or 7.9 percent of children aged five to 15 in Malaysia have experienced mental health contributed by four The main domains include (i)problems interacting with peers, (ii)behavioral problems, (iii)emotional problems, and (iv)hyperactivity problems where emotional problems take 8.3 percent of all mental health problems in children (IKU 2020 ). In the same study, the data obtained showed that 4.7 percent of children aged 2 to 17 years in Malaysia have a disability (IKU 2020). In fact, children with special needs are more likely to face emotional problems than children of normal development. In a systematic literature review, findings show that children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) experience more disturbances in emotional management and use less effective emotion management strategies when compared to individuals with normal development.
