the Malaysian Education Ministries through their quality control authorities

Agency Act 2007. The Malaysian
Qualifications Agency (MQA)is set up to implement and enforce the Malaysian
Qualifications Act 2007.

and government owned provide comprehensive world standard range of education
programs supported by the latest educational tools and technologies. Malaysia’s
internationally recognized broad based curriculum and high quality education

environment thus form a strong foundation for future success. As part of the
government’s effort to promote tertiary education in Malaysia to foreign
students, a goverment information website www.mohe.gov.my was set up.
