Coordination of New Norms of Life Post-Pandemic Covid-19 Towards Family Well-Being

Abstract

Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the whole world, the public in most countries have had to adapt to the 'new norm' and at the same time adjusted to the sudden change in their way of life. The panic effect it has, caused major changes to people's daily lives quick and suddenly. Therefore, the process of coordinating life will usually trigger various challenges from various aspects such as economic, social, emotional and health. Although the COVID-19 virus is decreasing, there are still no signs that the COVID-19 virus will be completely eradicated, when the epidemic has already changed to an endemic one. It will continue to be in the community’s immunity because of the vaccination initiative provided by the Malaysian government and pressure from the emergence of one new corona-virus variant after another. This paper observes some of the crucial steps that need to be done in the process of personal and family adjustment in a more orderly and systematic way with certain guides that are more strategic based on the trend reported by the Malaysia Family Well-Being (MyWI) Index Report. This study is a qualitative study using the method of analyzing documents, journals, and related articles. The study found that after reaching two years of post-pandemic, the country needs to re-examine the best methods as part of the National Recovery Plan (NRP). Malaysia should not delay in dealing with issues related to the new normal life because there is a need to act immediately and help the community especially those who have been severely affected by the pandemic.
