For adoption, there is the orphan child. It's whether they have been orphaned, given up voluntarily, abandoned, abused or forced to leave home due to poverty, there are many children out there who lack a loving home and family. In these situations, up to 50000 Malaysian children lack a loving home which is unexpected. Adoption is a happy compromise. While it is not easy and certainly there is some stigma attached to adoption in our modern but traditional society.
There are 2 separate but concurrent legislative schemes for adoption in Malaysia which are Adoption Act 1950 ("Adoption Act") is applicable for non-Muslim, and Registration of Adoption 1952 ("Registration of Adoption Act") for Muslims.
There are also application process which is couples should be married for at least 5 years and childless, have a report from a fertility specialist on why both of couple could not conceive, Malaysian citizen or married to a Malaysian, living in Peninsular Malaysia, healthy mentally and physically, no criminal record, living in safe neighbourhood, and combined income of at least RM 5000. These are all the requirements for those who want to adopt a child.
