Too Many People, Too Little Support

At 7.6 billion and with the world’s population increasing by 83 million annually,  the planet’s human inhabitants are set to burden it and its resources for the foreseeable future. Today is World Population Day and the theme this year is "Family planning is a human right.” We explore issues that impact how humans relate with each other: from reproductive rights to abortion, is Malaysia’s policy adequate to the task of making our existing human population happier and healthier?

Presented by: Sharaad Kuttan
