Studying abroad

Post by The_Patriot »

Seems like alot of Somalis this days go to Malysia or India to study in Unis.

The reason for India is they IT is too advanced and have very excellent tutors
While as for Malaysia its everything from Business to Medicine whats your say?

I also fogot they are very cheap and reasonable :up:

Obviously why would someone go to a place and look for the cheapest available option?
you go for a place where you get the best ouf of it.

By the way isnt the IT industry in US having a large concentration of Indians?

At one Point Yes and they werent brought here because they were somehow better, but rather they were cheap to employ with a much less salary and a 3 Year Visa. Most of them were laid off and send back during the whole IT Bust in Northern California. You go to a place where you get the most for your money but just make sure your not coming back to the US. I have seen a Somali with a medical degree from India and even was a practicing doctor and yet they send back to school here for 3 years and in the Arab world there is only Accredited Arab university and its called Malik Faisal in Saudi. Trust me i truly researched this shit because i was an exchange student last semester in New Zealand. :lol:

Somalis who are in Africa are doing a good thing to study abroad, but i don't understand why alot of somalis in the West go to china or India? My guts tells me that they don't fulkfill the requirements of the Universities in their country.

Unless you're living in your country of birth (which most of us aren't), you're already abroad.

You are right. Lots of my relatives from Bardhere and Beled Xawo go to school either in Kenya or Pakistan(Karachi).
