| description | Malaysia has a high prevalence of diabetes at 16.9% and suboptimal glycaemic control with only 23.8% achieving HbA1C of <7%.

A cross-sectional study was conducted in a purposive sample of 384 T2DM patients using Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire and 8-Item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale.
