Abstract

The essay is a position paper written by Ramaley (2014), looking at the widening definition and scope of stakeholders in higher education.

As fluid as it seems, no one would have predicted that the pandemic would happen and cause a big disruption to the world and impact every industry, including the higher education industry was badly affected. This article discusses the relevance and application of the author’s discussion in the Malaysian context. The article concludes the role of HLIs is definitely changing. In the 21st-century setting, HLIs are expected to be sustainable and resilient.
