He wanted to go back because he was a Malaysian -- he was rejected. One can not plan base on the government giving us a job, if you are among the best in a profession, you will find a way out. Go whereever it is in the world that can help you to be the best.<BR/> Yes, PKU and Tsinghua admission are highly competitive, except for some special cases you have mention. I am afraid most Malaysian students will have hard time keeping up in competitive courses in those places, however, if you can rise among the top in those courses, you will go somewhere. The same can be said if you are in Harvard, Stanford, MIT or Caltech and try to be among the top in competitive courses.<BR/><BR/>regards,<BR/>FrankAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-66842581999722172922009-01-15T14:36:00.000+08:002009-01-15T14:36:00.000+08:00The BIG answer is : our government does recognise ...The BIG answer is : our government does recognise lots of qualification from the middle east country, even if you are top graduate from a West university, you probably can’t find a job in the government, unless of course if you are a Islamic graduate from Cambridge and Harvard.<BR/><BR/>My friend, a Beijing U graduate says most Malaysian who has the opportunity to go into Beida is because of nationality, not result.

I thought that even the likes of TsingHua and BeiDa are not recognised by our LAN. This would be a terrible move if the students' qualifications are not recognised by the government. While they may not have problems finding jobs in the private sector, they will have problems with the government sector. We already have enough problems with students from unrecognised universities in Malaysia. I find it difficult to believe that the S'gor State government would actually do something this stupid.Shawn Tanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04342111805045331752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-4579036584519886362009-01-15T11:47:00.000+08:002009-01-15T11:47:00.000+08:00I will send my kids to Tsinghua or PKU over the un...I will send my kids to Tsinghua or PKU over the universities in Malaysia for the right courses. Very high percentages of Tsinghua and PKU graduates get into top American U under fellowship funding. <BR/> My son's Harvard room mate (a non Chinese) spent 1 year in PKU as part of his undergraduate studies. He graduated from Harvard with Summa Cum Laude. If PKU is good enough for a top student from Harvard U, I do not see why it is not good enough for a Malaysian student. <BR/> However, if you kids get into Tsinghua or PKU make sure they can keep up and do well. It is not going to be esay.<BR/><BR/>regards,<BR/>FrankAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-67603262689559673852009-01-15T11:28:00.000+08:002009-01-15T11:28:00.000+08:00Why not China?
