This conference provides a rare opportunity for our academicians to discuss humanities topics related to culture, politics, nation state, ethnic relation, business culture and issue related to management. Being a multi ethnic society with three biggest communities, the Malay, Chinese and Indian and each ethnic community possesses a distinct identity in terms of custom, social norms, literature and art, bringing this conference into the country fitting well to the spirit of the conference.
