Abstract

Appreciation of Ethics and Civilization (PEP) has been introduced as one of the General Subjects (MPU) by the Higher Education Department of Malaysia instead of the Ethnic Relations course. The PEP course has a comprehensive curriculum content that includes nine topics, and it is tied to the elements of ethics and civilization. Thus, the main objective of this paper is focused on topic 1, Appreciation of Ethics and Civilization in the Malaysian Pattern by focusing on the understanding and concept of ethics and civilization. Understandings and concepts need to be clarified as they are the most important part of understanding the entire course. The concepts of ethics and civilization need to be seen not only in terms of understanding, but need to be explained from various perspectives that are in line with the goals to be achieved from the PEP course. Since this writing is a concept paper, the writing method is qualitative based on library research. This study uses secondary sources such as research results in journals, scientific writing and historical sources. The results of the study found that the concept of ethics and civilization for the PEP course needs to be seen in the context of the civilization of the Malay World and the malay as a native people. Knowledge of the country's history is also necessary to understand the concept, and it can help students to better understand the curriculum content of the PEP course.
