ABSTRACT
Malaysian higher education system is undergoing significant transformation. It started with the effort to corporatise public universities followed by the democratisation of higher education that saw many private universities and university colleges being established. The establishment of Malaysian National Higher Education Fund and the formulation of Malaysian Qualification Framework further shaped the new form of Malaysian Higher Education system. The private higher education sector is now recognised as a strong contributor towards meeting Malaysia’s need for human resources. At the same time the expectation on public institutions of higher education to be the engine of innovation and creativity is rising. Quality and value for money are two issues among the many emerging issues relating to the transformation of Malaysian higher education system. Meeting the bottom-line while offering quality education drives the private higher education sector. On the other hand the public sector used to have less pressure in financing their operation and could focus on providing quality education. This paper shall describe the situations facing Malaysian public and private institutions of higher education. It shall discuss the strength and weaknesses of Malaysian private and public higher education institutions and the trends in the development of higher education system in Malaysia.
