Malaysia offers
an interesting yet comfortable option for students wishing to
study in an English-speaking country. It mixes Western-style
industrialization with an intriguing Eastern cultural fusion of
Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous cultures and customs. It
is a wealthy, modern country on the cutting edge of technology
that at the same time boasts some of the most superb beaches,
mountains and national parks in Asia.
Malaysian
institutes provide a wide variety of courses and degrees that
meet international standards at a much lower cost than in other
study destinations. At the university level, students can get
qualifications equivalent to those from institutes in the UK,
US, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and France, through “twinning
degrees” or study at foreign university branches. These options
make it possible to obtain a degree from an internationally
recognized program at an affordable cost, in a culturally
familiar environment close to home.
