Comparison of Education Policy Systems in Indonesia and Malaysia – Future Challenges and Opportunities

Djono Paringadi, Agus Timan

Abstract


The "Comparison of Education Policy Systems in Indonesia and Malaysia – Future Challenges and Opportunities" study aims to examine the similarities and differences in education policies between Indonesia and Malaysia. The research identifies the need to improve Indonesia's education system to align with neighboring countries, particularly Malaysia and Singapore. The study employs a literature review method to compare education policies, focusing on character education, education management, and overall educational structures. The results indicate that Indonesia's education policies are categorized as low, primarily due to the lack of advanced character education strategies and management systems. Malaysia's education system, on the other hand, offers free education and additional community assistance, contributing to its more advanced status. The study concludes that enhancing Indonesian education policies through character education and effective management can improve the quality of education.
