Since 1953, the Cultural Division was founded under the Department of Social Welfare and placed under the Prime Minister Department aimed at enhancing National Culture in developing social economy and fostering noble values.

The Cultural Division plays the role of outlining cultural development policy, and planning, coordinating and managing cultural programmes by preserving the unity and national culture to ensure the essence and aspirations remain appreciated through appreciation and continuous practice.

In 1964, the Cultural Division was placed under the Ministry of Information. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting with the Ministry of Culture and Social Welfare jointly presented a proposal for the establishment of Malaysian National Cultural Centre. In the original proposal, the Cultural Complex would encompass other few components such as National History Museum, National Art Gallery, National Planetarium, Main Theatre, Restaurants and Cultural Mall. The site for construction of this complex was in Lembah Pantai which was adjacent to the Malaysia Broadcast Center and the University of Malaya.

In 1972, the Cultural Division was placed under the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports, and on 20th May 1987, the Government have merged the Cultural Division at the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports with the Malaysian Tourism Development Board at the Ministry of Trades and Industries, which was subsequently known as the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Beginning 22 October 1992, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism have changed its name and is more popularly known as the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Tourism and have been operating at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) until the formation of the new Cabinet by the YAB Prime Minister on 01 November 2003.

With the formation of the new Cabinet by the YAB Prime Minister, matters related to Arts and Culture were placed under the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage Malaysia while matters related to the aspects of tourism were placed under the Ministry of Tourism Malaysia.

During the formation of the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage Malaysia, the Arts and Cultural Development Division status remains as a division under the Ministry until the directive from YB Minister for a motion to be made by the Ministry for the establishment of the National Department for Culture and Arts, as well as the States Department for Culture, Arts and Heritage.

The Arts and Cultural Development Division prepared the proposal paper on the establishment of the National Department for Culture and Arts, as well as the States Department for Culture, Arts and Heritage. In November 2004, the presentation of the proposal paper on the establishment of the Department was submitted to the Civil Service Department.

On 15 March 2005, the Culture and Arts Development Division received Warrant of Appointment No. S/20 year 2005 dated 22 March 2005. By receiving this Warrant of Appointment, the National Department for Culture and Arts and the States Department for Culture, Arts and Heritage were officially formed.

Subsequently, through the Warrant of Appointment No. S40 dated 1 February 2007, the creation of another new division at JKKN which is the Planning, Research and Development Division aimed at enabling JKKN to function better in planning and research matters for arts and culture. By 18 March 2008, JKKN shifted its patronage and was placed under the Ministry of Unity, Culture, Arts and Heritage (KPKKW). In April 2009, JKKN patronage was under the Ministry of Information, Communication and Culture (KPKK).

Background

DASAR KEBUDAYAAN KEBANGSAAN (DKK) 1971 DAN DASAR KEBUDAYAAN NEGARA (DAKEN) 2021

Kandungan Dasar Kebudayaan Negara (DAKEN) 2021 dibangunkan dengan mengambil kira asas-asas pembinaan negara bangsa seperti yang sedia ada dalam Dasar Kebudayaan Kebangsaan (DKK) 1971.

DKK tidak pernah diberi pensahihan kerana tidak pernah dibentangkan di peringkat Kabinet dan hanya dilaksanakan secara pentadbiran sepanjang tempoh 50 tahun, namun beberapa kejayaan telah direkodkan hasil daripada saranan-saranan resolusi. DAKEN digubal sebagai kesinambungan DKK dalam konteks yang lebih sahih sebagai sebuah punca kuasa.

DAKEN turut mengambil kira prinsip-prinsip yang terkandung dalam Dasar Kebudayaan Kebangsaan (DKK) yang diilhamkan pada tahun 1971 dan berlandaskan Perlembagaan Persekutuan sebagai ikatan mengharmonikan masyarakat majmuk di Malaysia. Dasar ini juga menjadikan prinsip-prinsip dan objektif Rukun Negara sebagai ideologi untuk menyeragamkan kefahaman semua rakyat pelbagai kaum di negara ini bagi memelihara kemakmuran, keamanan dan kesejahteraan dengan jiwa patriotik.

Penggubalan DAKEN mengambil kira lima (5) aspek utama iaitu Keterangkuman (inclusivity), Kebersamaan (cohesiveness), Semangat Kebanggaan (spirit of prideness), Keterbukaan (openness) dan Menyeluruh (holistic).

DAKEN menjadi panduan dan rujukan bagi memperkasa serta meningkatkan pemahaman, penghayatan, kecintaan dan pengamalan budaya dalam aspek kehidupan. Dasar ini perlu dimiliki, dihayati dan didokong oleh semua pihak supaya aspek seni, budaya dan warisan negara terus terpelihara, disanjungi dan lestari. 

Dasar Kebudayaan Negara (DAKEN) menggariskan visi, misi dan strategi yang jelas ke arah menjadikan Malaysia sebagai sebuah Negara Maju, Rakyat Berbudaya dengan memfokuskan kepada tujuh (7) teras utama iaitu:
1. Budaya Nilai Tinggi
2. Keharmonian Masyarakat,
3. Pemeliharaan dan Pemuliharaan Warisan Budaya
4. Pembangunan dan Pengembangan Budaya
5. Pemerkasaan Budaya
6. Penjanaan Ekonomi Kebudayaan
7. Kecemerlangan Budaya.
 

Dalam usaha mencapai visi dan misi kebudayaan negara, sebanyak tiga puluh sembilan (39) strategi dengan sembilan puluh lima (95) pelan tindakan telah dikenal pasti, dirancang dan dirangka bagi tempoh pelaksanaan lima (5) tahun (2021-2025) berdasarkan tujuh (7) teras utama tersebut. 

Strategi dan Pelan Tindakan Dasar Kebudayaan Negara ini diharap dapat membantu kerja-kerja kreatif dalam kalangan rakyat, dengan mengutamakan budaya nilai tinggi dan tahap keintelektualan. 

Secara umumnya, pelaksanaan dasar ini melibatkan empat (4) institusi penting iaitu:
1. Institusi Kekeluargaan
2. Institusi Pendidikan
3. Institusi Kemasyarakatan
4. Institusi Perkhidmatan
 

DAKEN menjadi satu wadah penting untuk memantapkan pembinaan negara bangsa supaya terus kekal maju dengan rakyatnya yang berbudaya nilai tinggi. Dasar ini diharap dapat mencapai matlamat untuk Malaysia sebagai sebuah Negara Maju, Rakyat Berbudaya.
