The AEI is an institute under University of Malaya, which has established itself successfully as a leading instition of postgraduate studies in Southeast Asia. The Asia-Europe Institute aims to enhance cooperation between Asia ans Europe while developing better understanding of politics, institutions, economics, business, cultures and best legal practices of both regions.
