In Malaysia, the shortage of documentation from previous authorities and colonial powers has accelerated the need for oral history to be used as a method to capture valuable untold community stories. This research interprets current oral history practices from the perspectives of oral history practitioners and cultural institution professionals in Malaysia. The Mediated Recordkeeping: Culture-as-evidence model was used to interpret the practices, and the study found ways to extend this model to reflect oral history practices.
