Higher education framework needs changes to align with evolving global landscape, says Zambry

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s higher education framework must change according to current needs and align with the evolving landscape of global education, says Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir.

He said the Higher Education Ministry (MOHE) encourages all public and private higher education institutions (IPTA and IPTS), polytechnics and community colleges to establish collaborations and understanding with foreign higher education institutions and industry players.

Zambry said this aligns with the internationalisation policy and strategy developed by MOHE.

“It is essential for us to quickly adapt the higher education framework and no longer base it on the old framework… the whole world is changing, and all the country’s higher education institutions need to adapt to these changes.
