nationally by Asian-affiliated higher-education researchers. To prevent bias, it is
necessary for higher-education researchers in Asia to write their own accounts of the
development of regional higher-education systems and to publish these accounts in
the international higher-education literature. They must continue to collaborate with
colleagues from other parts of the world when writing about Asia, but also to increase
their collaboration with other Asian researchers to gain insights into the different
dynamics of development of higher education across Asia. Initiatives fostering com-
munication and networking have already been established to form a coherent and
participatory higher-education research community in Asia, which will play a crucial
role in achieving an in-depth and nuanced understanding of the region and in making
knowledge of Asian higher education available to the world.
