Within five years of commencing their studies what proportion of international PhD students from Indonesia complete their doctoral degree and what proportion have dropped out?

Within five years of commencing their studies what proportion of international PhD students from Malaysia complete their doctoral degree and what proportion have dropped out?

Yours faithfully,
