2020年，马来西亚政局再次动荡，总理马哈蒂尔突然宣布辞职，执政不满2年的”希望联盟“政府垮台，穆希丁出任总理并重组内阁。与此同时，新冠肺炎疫情突袭而至，马来西亚经济、文化和公共卫生安全遭到严重冲击，多项国内文化活动及对外文化交流被迫暂停。在这一背景下，深化抗疫合作、开展远程线上交流、开拓数字文化新业态、加强传统文化保护成为马来西亚文化发展新动向。
In 2020，political situation Malaysia went turmoil again. Prime Minister Dr.Mahathir suddenly announced his resignation. The Pakatan Harapan government，which was in power for less than two years，collapsed. Muhyiddin became prime minister and reorganized the cabinet. At the same time，COVID-19 has caused a huge blow to Malaysia’s economy，culture and public health security and suspended many domestic cultural activities and foreign cultural exchanges. In this context，deepening anti-epidemic cooperation，developing remote online exchanges，developing new digital culture formats，and strengthening the protection of traditional culture have become new trends in Malaysian cultural development.
