Abstract

The Malay language as a language of knowledge brings the agenda of putting the capabilities and roles of the Malay language as a means of delivering modern knowledge in various disciplines. It explains the scientific nature of Malay language which has a complete academic feature with broad-ranging capabilities to accurately address the diversity of knowledge such as the ancient history of Malay language as a catalyst for Malay academic scholarship in the 7th century AD. Nonetheless, the act of preserving Malay as the language of advanced knowledge is still being argued. The holistic usage of Malay language in different levels of studies such as in the study of degrees, masters and doctorate across the field of study; scientific writing in journals and textbooks; communication of transfer for knowledge from university to the community; even as a major communication tool for university students, is still low. Therefore, the results of the scientific review reflect the work on the issues and achievement of the Malay language as the language of advanced knowledge, especially in the national academia scholarship. The Malay language as the language of advanced knowledge is possible to achieve if the confidence, accountability and the solid cooperation of all parties are strengthened in order to fulfill the highest level of identity, culture and race of Malaysia.
