This research delivers its novelty by acknowledging the citizens as the causal agent to their SSWB being instead of the outcome of resources provision or policy implementation to enhance well-being. The SSWB model is valuable for measuring the readiness and social progress of Malaysians to embrace sustainability in well-being throughout their lifestyle. The research delivers beneficial findings for policy review, which, hitherto, was difficult to evaluate due to the lack of quantifiable subjective data in MWI.
