From April 10 to 15, 36 Chinese universities including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Zhejiang University, Nanjing University and Sun Yat-sen University attended the Chinese Higher Education Fair 2017, which was held respectively at Hua Lian High School and Kuang Hwa Private High School by the United Chinese School Committees’ Association of Malaysia. Xiamen University and Xiamen University Malaysia formed a delegation and attended the fair, with Prof. Chen Binghui from the College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering as the group leader. Over 2000 students from north Malaysia and central Malaysia were drawn to the fair for consultation. XMU prepared graphic posters, detailed enrollment guidelines, campus scenery bookmarks and some other publicity materials for local students and parents to get a glimpse of the glamour of Xiamen University. The XMU delegates patiently answered the questions regarding the requirement and procedure of enrollment, majors and fields of study, scholarship application, accommodation and job prospect as well as the information on XMU Malaysia.

Malaysian students, who are generally known to possess the desired comprehensive qualities, diversified cultural backgrounds and generally high Chinese proficiency, are well sought-after by Xiamen University. Up to now, XMU has carried out long-term exchanges and cooperation in a wide range of areas with Malaysia. Penang Xiamen Friendship Association has visited XMU on multiple occasions and discussed with XMU about the prospect of cultural exchanges and education fairs. During the period of the China-ASEAN High School Presidents Forum, which was held by XMU last year, the principals of 46 prestigious middle schools in Malaysia and those of other middle schools in ASEAN countries gathered under one roof to explore such issues as the “globalization of education”, the “interface between middle school education and college education” and so on so forth.
