Introduction
Focuses on the historical development of Malaysian higher education and higher education policy since
Malaya achieved as political independence in 1957.
Three key periods to consider in terms of the development of higher education policy:
1) From the independence of Federation of Malaya to the 1969 Riots
2) After the Riots to 1990 (New Economic Policy); and
3) From 1990 to Mahathir’s retirement 2003
The most significant changes took places in 1975 and 1996 – the changes in the structure of higher
education in Malaysia have generally taken place as a reaction to changes in the economic or political
environment
