Iraqi national pursuing PhD claims he doesn’t understand English or BM
NIBONG TEBAL: An Iraqi national pursuing a doctorate degree at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) who was charged in the Jawi magistrate’s court here claimed he did not know English or Bahasa Malaysia.

The case was then fixed for March 23 so an Arabic interpreter could be found to translate the charge.

I'm curious:
1) How can someone pursue a doctorate degree at USM without any knowledge of English or BM?
2) What language is USM using as its teaching medium?
