At the diplomatic level, Malaysia and the CLMV countries have already established mutual understanding and are now progressively encouraging and creating greater collaboration in the academia (Aniswal & Munir, 2008). Through a series of dialogue workshops, which has been organised since 2008, the foundation for networking efforts and strategic linkages between Malaysia and the CLMV countries has been laid so as to strengthen the regional collaboration in higher education.
