WHO WE ARE

A home

away from home

The National Assembly of Malaysian Students in the United States of America (NAMSA) is a student-led umbrella body that unites Malaysian Student Associations across the United States.

It fosters leadership, professionalism, and meaningful connections while supporting the personal and professional growth of Malaysian students through collaboration, networking, and community-building initiatives.

WHAT WE STAND ON

Organizational Pillars

We vow to be the platform where students can voice out their opinions/concerns on any issue, and receive help for any situation given the circumstances.

Everyone is a part of our NAMSA family and we believe that no one and no voice should be left behind or unheard.

Advocacy & Service

As the faces of Malaysia in the US, we should always try to display Malaysian hospitality with pride in everything we do.

In NAMSA, events such as the Malaysian Cultural Festival (MFest) and the Malaysian Sports Festival (MSF) promote this along with other events hosted by the Malaysian Student Associations (MASAs) in universities across the US.

Culture & Lifestyle

We strive to help the development of future leaders of Malaysia by finding opportunities that can benefit not just the students, but also other stakeholders such as companies in Malaysia and the US.

This is done by hosting various career fairs, workshops, etc; that are all boosted by a growing network that we build with different stakeholders.

And just like that, another chapter comes to a close. 🍂 Summer went by fast, carrying with it new places, new experiences, and little pieces of a world that never seems to stop moving.

But no matter how far we scatter across every corner of the world, there’s always a sweet spot in our hearts for campus. For the bluest skies, the familiar walks, and those bell towers that cheered us on through the worst days and the best ones.

Your Campus. Your Moments. Your Clicks.

No matter how far away from home we may be, Malaysia will always be a part of who we are. From all of us at NAMSA, Happy 69th Independence Day, Malaysia! 🇲🇾✨

May we continue to carry the spirit of Merdeka wherever we go and celebrate the unity that brings us together, even miles away from home.

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! 🇲🇾

Some of us just flew back from Malaysia after summer break, some stayed in the US all summer, and some are about to experience studying abroad for the very first time. 😓🥺

So here’s to celebrating all the little things that come with being a Malaysian student abroad—the exciting ones, the difficult ones, and the moments we don’t really talk about enough. 🇲🇾✈️🇺🇸

At the end of the day, we’re all just trying our best while building a life away from home 🤍

So, what has been the hardest part for you? 😢
