  • International Conference on Media Education and Training (ICMET)
    International Conference on Media Education and Training (ICMET) FACTORS AFFECTING COMMUNICATION STUDIES IN MALAYSIA By SYED ARABI IDID INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA Organised by Department of Media Studies, UNIVERSITI MALAYA At PJ Hilton, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. 18 AUGUST, 2014 INTRODUCTION Many factors contribute toward the development of communication studies, many of them are general factors that are applicable to many universities world wide but there are special circumstances that influence the development of these studies in certain institutions and in certain countries. This paper initially takes a historical perspective but later reviews the factors affecting the current development of communication studies in Malaysia. Government policy and incentives on higher education, world events, and institutional developments play vital roles in influencing communication studies in Malaysia. The legal framework in which the universities were allowed to operate, the relaxation in the 1990s to allow for the growth of private universities, the establishment in 2004 of the Ministry of Higher Education (then merging again to form the Ministry of Education in 2013) and the quest to find a global ranking have affected the development of universities and communication studies. It was 26 years ago when Mohd Hamdan Adnan (1988) wrote that mass communication and journalism programmes in Malaysia had gained acceptance and recognition among institutions of higher learning and professional organisations. He described the growth of communication education and training at the university level then as “astonishing” (pg.67). Other scholars ( Asiah Sarji & Idid, 2003; Idid, 2000, 2003a, 2003 b; Merican, 2005; Vincent Lowe, 2005) had also written on communication studies in the past and though these had become dated, the illustrations contained were historical for purposes of reference.
