If your child shows signs of autism, take him to a paediatrician


One of the symptoms of ASD is when a child always gets upset whenever you change the arrangement of their toys or have a minor change in their usual routine. — ART CHEN/The Star

Apparently, over the past 20 years in the United States, autism cases have increased about 300%.

Even in Malaysia, our Social Welfare Department has recorded a surge of 663% over the last 10 years, from almost 7,000 cases in 2013 to over 53,000 cases in 2023.
