PETALING JAYA: Befrienders, a non-governmental organisation offering emotional support to the distressed and suicidal, has called on the Government to create a central database to track suicides and attempted suicides.
Currently, Befrienders can only glean trends of suicidal behaviour from anecdotes from the media, medical professionals, small-scale studies and their own experience, said Befrienders Kuala Lumpur chairman Zilfalila Rahman.
