“There is an urgent need to ensure investment is prioritised so that Malaysia has adequate capacity to manage both the immediate post-Covid-19 pandemic mental health issues and to stay vigilant in preparation for possible future mental health crises,” he said in a statement in conjunction with the World Mental Health Day today.

“As we are at war to flatten the curve of Covid-19 infections, there may be another bomb waiting to explode which is the “silent mental illness pandemic”. “Imagine its economic impact with the increasing of cases expected this year and beyond due to the impact of Covid-19 pandemic,” he added.
