Not one of the local universities were considered as among the top 100 higher learning institutions in Asia, according to Times Higher Education (THE) Asia University Rankings 2014.

This is despite Putrajaya's claim that Malaysia has one of the best education systems in the world – better than United States, Britain and Germany.

The THE Asia University Rankings 2014 was topped by University of Tokyo followed by the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the University of Hong Kong.

Last year, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) made the list, clinching the 87th spot.

Malaysia's closest neighbours, Singapore and Thailand, each had two of its universities ranked in the top 100.

While NUS secured the 2nd spot, Nanyang Technological University clinched the 11th spot.

Thailand's King Mongkut's University of Technology, Thonburi was at the 50th spot while Mahidol University took the 82nd spot.

Japan sported 20 universities in the top 100 list, while China followed closely behind with 18 universities.

Turkey, Iran, Israel and Saudi Arabia made significant strides, with five Turkish universities making the list while the rest with three universities each.

Lebanon's American University of Beirut clinched the 86th spot.

Having only three universities in the list last year, India chartered further success this year with 10 of its universities making the list​
