Through a discussion of findings from previous studies, gaps in criminology knowledge on the bully-design link and future crime will be highlighted. Bullying is a serious social problem that can affect and impact a student’s future. The previous studies had indicated the link between bullying behaviour and future crime for the bully and the victim. In conclusion, this article will emphasise the need for future research in environmental design and bullying behaviour.

KLK executive director Lee Jia Zhang said in a statement that, “We understand that the COVID-19 pandemic has changed many of our lives, we are humbled to be able to help ease the financial woes for our Malaysian Mixed Doubles during this difficult period.
