Abstract
This paper aims to examine the development ofLAM memory institutions (Library, Archive, Museum) or libraries, archives,and museums during the British colonial era in Malaya. This study is using qualitative methods that involve the collection and evaluation of primary sources from National Archive and Museum. The findings of the study show that the efforts of usingLAM in Europe based on the philosophy of the Enlightenment have been applied by the British in the colonization of Malaya. This reality can be seen from the British writings on Malaya before independence. Among them was the role of Islamic jurisprudence that has been denied and census information, mapping and museum frameworks that are in favor of British interests.
