I’m Cambodian !!! But Only 2 Universities That Are Good
1. Lim Kokveng
2. IFL
Kimthang says
What criteria do use to evaluate those universities? It seems those universities are incomparable as they are specialized in different fields. With different criteria, the result shown in the list is wrong!
laissezze says
What was the basis of ranking? Was there an external evaluator? Statistics would be nice to back-up the results.
