The establishment of the China-Malaysia Future Institute is an urgent need for the two institutions to focus on training talents of international-mindedness and accelerating the internationalisation of emerging interdisciplinary disciplines, in addition to promoting discipline construction and overall innovative development between SEGi and USY. Moving forward, the two universities will effectively integrate their strengths in building the institute into an exemplary cluster of educational partners and educational cooperation along the One Belt, One Road initiative. This will also enhance the cross-border educational influence of China and Malaysia in the China-ASEAN countries and create a new space for the development of a high-quality education system in China and Malaysia.
