Apart from that, one can earn a higher education certification like a diploma, degree, masters or even doctorate qualification from prestigious local universities here at an affordable cost. The mobility of higher education will continue to be Malaysia’s main agenda,” Maszlee said when wrapping up his working visit to Paris, France, and Doha, Qatar from November 12 to 21.
As of December 2018, Education Malaysia Global Services reported there were approximately 170,000 foreign students in Malaysia from over 135 countries.“Malaysia remains an important source market for both established and emerging study destinations. We know many international students choose to study in Malaysia as it offers them real value for money.
On Wednesday, Maszlee said Universiti Malaya had climbed to the 13th spot in Quacquarelli Symonds Asia University Rankings 2020 from 24th place last year.
