Malaysia is a multi language country as most of the people know at least 3 languages such as Malay, Mandarin and Tamil. Staying abroad offers much more than the opportunity to learn a language. You can expect the adantage to continue when you return home or for the future business. The alternative way to learn a language is to live with the people who speak it every day. Therefore, as an exchange student, you have an opportunity to learn different languages from your classmate and teach them your mother language as well.
The English literacy rate is relatively very commendable in Malaysia. As the most of the public is able to speak in simple English and communicate fluently with foreigners and international students. Furthermore, due to the diversity of people, international students can actually learn different local languages such as Malay, Chinese and Tamil, too.

Malaysians can get very creative with our word choices. Not many countries are able to speak a full sentence that combines different languages and still have people understand what they’re saying. But, we Malaysians can.
