Internship at Institute Islam Hadhari UKM — what I learned

by Zubaidah Nordin·September 3, 2025

Policy research internship. Wrote 2 policy memos submitted to ministry. Exposed to government advisory process. More impactful than I expected. RM600/month but the experience was worth it.

Policy intern experience with government advisory exposure is extremely rare. This is a strong differentiator for public sector roles.

Government policy internships are heavily relationship-based. The contacts you build there compound over decades.
