Abstract

This is a survey research for the identification of social ecology support and survival among youths from various ethnic backgrounds in Malaysia. Social ecology encompasses several aspects including the support from institutions, families, local communities, and online platforms. Survival refers to knowledge, skills, lifelong education, as well as value and creativity. The sample comprised 2,400 respondents selected by a stratified random method from different ethnicities, which covered Malay, Chinese and Indian groups. All respondents are living in 6 zones in an urban area of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The result of the pilot study showed that the reliability level of the overall item was at a high confidence level of 0.834 -0.929 when analysed using Cronbach’s alpha. The finding of this study shows that the level of social ecology support is high. Survival on the other hand is also at a high level. As for stepwise regression analysis, the factor of online support, which relates to enhancing knowledge, gaining new skills, and networking through online applications, has aided youth in improving the longevity of their urban life. This research also reveals that support primarily in the form of online platforms should be given special attention at various stages in shaping the youths. This is compatible with global generations especially in urban areas.
