The level of satisfaction that one experiences while using the internet depends on type of disabilities. The internet offers an opportunity for inclusiveness – to view the global community of its users as one while recognizing its rich diversity. Internet technologies have the potential to give persons with disabilities the means to live on a more equitable basis within the global community in a manner that previously was not possible. This study aims to examine the level of satisfaction usage of the internet and to provide empirical evidences for policy formulation on digital inclusion among persons with disabilities. Stratified random sampling procedure is used for the quantitative research design. Total 805 adult disabilities data collected according to region: North, West, South, East Coast and East Malaysia.
