Abstract
A Higgs-compatible boson has been observed at the LHC at CERN. We briefly review the role of the Higgs in particle physics and describe some of the current challenges in understanding the fundamental structure of the universe. Is there supersymmetry and is it instrumental in uniting gravity with the other three fundamental forces? What makes up dark matter and dark energy? We also report on the efforts in experimental particle physics by Malaysian collaborators to answer some of these questions.
