Plagiarism is not a recent issue as it has existed for a long time, especially within the academic world. The study aims to examine the applicable laws in Malaysia relating to plagiarism from the academic's perspective by referring to India as the benchmark jurisdiction. The findings have shown that there are no standard policies for all educational institutions in coping with plagiarism. Therefore, it is recommended that the Malaysian government needs to address the gap in current regulations by having uniform legislation for all institutions on that particular academic misconduct on plagiarism.
