"The results of the QS.com Asian University Rankings focus on regionally relevant measures of excellence," said QS managing director Nunzio Quacquarelli in an email yesterday. He said the top performing universities distinguished themselves not only by quality, but also by high productivity of research. "Malaysian universities have performed well, with high numbers of international students and faculty. These results make studying in Malaysia an attractive option for international students." The top spot for the Asian university went to the University of Hong Kong. The Chinese University of Hong Kong came in second, followed by University of Tokyo in third placing. The National University of Singapore and Peking University in China are ranked at the 10th spot. ------------------------ Latest updates at Singapore News Alternative: 1.
