PUTRAJAYA, July 22 (Bernama) -- Malaysia is promoting its higher education capabilities at Expo 2025 Osaka, with the Ministry of Higher Education (KPT) hosting Higher Education Week at the Malaysia Pavilion from July 21 to 26.
In a statement, KPT said that more than 20 universities and agencies are participating to showcase the country’s academic strengths, research excellence and openness to international collaboration under the theme ‘Study in Malaysia’.
The programme was officially launched online today by Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir.
KPT said the initiative aims to attract more international students while highlighting the global impact of Malaysian institutions through high-impact research and innovation.
Malaysia’s presence at the Pavilion, coordinated by the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), reinforces its position as a regional education hub offering internationally recognised programmes with local relevance.
In his speech, Zambry said Malaysia’s higher education landscape continues to evolve as a regional hub offering internationally recognised programmes enriched with local strengths.
KPT also introduced the Edutourism Gateway, a digital platform that combines learning and tourism to enhance Malaysia’s appeal as a study-abroad destination.
It noted that Malaysia remains a top study destination for international students due to globally accredited programmes, highly ranked institutions, affordable education and living costs, safety and its unique multicultural society.
Activities during the week include exhibitions, innovation showcases, sharing sessions and the signing of strategic partnerships involving public and private higher learning institutions.
The Malaysian delegation is led by Department of Polytechnic and Community College Education (JPPKK) director-general Datuk Dr Mohd Zahari Ismail.
Malaysia’s participation in the expo, which gathers more than 150 countries, is expected to foster new international partnerships and support the Malaysia MADANI agenda focused on innovation, resilience and talent development.
