Dear Friends.
If you ever encounter this problem in your class, Please calm down.
it's very normal for some lecturers to use "Bahasa Malaysia" during classes, Sometimes to tell a joke
sometimes to explain a certain point which the students couldn't understand while it was explained in English.
if you didn't understand that point as well, you can simply ask your international class mates to explain it to you, if you have no international class mates or they couldn't understand as well, just ask the lecturer "Politely" to explain it again. the lecturer will not refuse.
in another case, if the lecturer is using too much "Bahasa Malaysia", you can always tell him after class "Polity" that your Bahasa Malaysia is very weak and you couldn't understand anything.
Accept what the lecturers suggests to you. Usually most lecturers will stop speaking in Bahasa Malaysia or will decrease it greatly.
Some might suggest that he will explain the same thing in Bahasa Malaysia and English Language. if you feel unsatisfied with his English explanations you can always ask him\her "Politely" for more explanation after class or raise your hand and ask him directly if he ask the students for any questions.
You can always visit the lecturer at his\her office if you need any help, just make sure to contact them before heading to their office.
if the lecturer ignores you completely and refuses to explain in English in any how, Contact your RPS. Just remember, Be polite and not angry when you discuss your situation with your RPS.
Your RPS can always help you by giving you useful advises and solutions.
in the end all what you need to know is that you are in Malaysia, you can't force your language over other nations , you just be nice with them and you will get the knowledge you are seeking.
And again if you need more information, Don't hesitate to contact me.
Good luck.
