AH Korean in AIMST? You got to be kidding me. Korea got good medical facility although competition is very tough. Well I guess everyone like to be in med school now.
Having international students in AIMST would be a bit unusual, as AFAIK they don't have twinning programs, save for those from the subcontinent who couldn't get into other medical schools. But international students using Malaysia as a stepping stone is all too common.
Inti is pretty much kept afloat with the Mainland Chinese/Nigerians/Namibians who do 2 + 2 programs and end up in the developed world. I have met Mainland Chinese and Nigerians who would have never been able enter Australian/New Zealand universities, if it wasn't for spending a few years in M'sia.
Even IMU is filled with Singaporeans who could not have gotten into western medical schools directly, so they use IMU's (relatively) lax admission standards as a spring board.
No international student comes to Malaysia for a education as a ends. It is always a means to another end.
