This research delves into the multifaceted dynamics that influence the woven fabric output of female songket weavers in Sukarara Village. By examining the roles of age, marital status, and education level, this study provides valuable insights into the factors shaping productivity in the weaving industry. The findings reveal that age significantly impacts weaving output, with older weavers producing less cloth. Marital status plays a crucial role, as married weavers exhibit higher productivity than their unmarried or divorced counterparts. Surprisingly, education level is found to have limited significance in relation to output. These insights contribute to a nuanced understanding of productivity dynamics in the weaving industry and suggest the need for context-specific strategies to empower and support female songket weavers in Sukarara Village.

Women can be categorised as one of the marginalised and disadvantaged groups in Malaysia. With the COVID-19 pandemic that has hit Malaysia over the past three years, the vulnerability of Malaysian women in aspects of mental health and limited or inflexible occupations has increased. ECER-Suri@Home is a socioeconomic development program designed for women in ECER, especially housewives and single mothers with mobility constraints, to engage in home-based businesses, such as tenun and songket weaving, as a means to help them earn regular additional income. This study aims to assess the socioeconomic impact of the ECER-Suri@Home program on the participants and explore how the monitoring practice used can influence the sustainability of the program in empowering the wellbeing of B40 women in Terengganu. This study employed quantitative and qualitative approaches in data collection by distributing questionnaires to the program’s participants and in-depth interviews with several key informants from ECERDC and Yayasan Pembangunan Keluarga Terengganu. The outcome of this study revealed that this program has had a high impact on the economic status of the participants. The monthly monitoring visit has increased the productivity and quality of the tenun songket produced by the participants; however, this program would not be sustainable for the next cohort due to the difficulty in finding suitable participants.
