As of 2017, it was reported that Malaysia already has about 450,000 disabled persons registered with Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat (JKM) but the actual number could be far more. This is because it is not compulsory for Malaysians to register and some of them don't is because of the stigma that still exist within our society about disabled people.
