description: The global impact of E-learning is felt by many nations including Malaysia. Hence, ELearning  has been included as one of its primary activities in the country’s national  Information Communications Technology (ICT) agenda. In planning for the future, it was  imperative that the Malaysian government knew the level of readiness in the country, in  particular among policy-makers, providers, enablers and receivers. It is important as Elearning  has been viewed as a way to further the goals of its national education agenda.  A nation-wide study to determine the state of E-learning readiness in the country was  conducted in 2004. This paper reports the findings of the study jointly conducted by the  Ministry of Energy, Water and Communication and the Open University Malaysia in  particular among 977 enablers of E-Learning. The e-readiness as perceived by the  respondents was examined from several dimensions: learner readiness, management  readiness, personnel readiness, content readiness, technical readiness, environmental  readiness, cultural readiness and financial readiness. The findings of the study and how  it has impacted on some of the government’s decision for further development of higher  education is included in the paper. (Author's abstract)
