However, it is the national university that really decides the holiday. So you have to wait until the school calendar of 2009- 10 is published.
According to the official holidays of the Malaysian government, there are only two days of holidays during the Spring Festival, namely, the first day and the second day of the New Year. However, the school usually lists the week of the Spring Festival as a week off, or a self-study week between the end of the course and the final exam, so that Malaysian China students can have a week off without asking. Of course, some schools are cruel enough to arrange the final exam at that time and only stop the exam during the Spring Festival holiday, so students can't go home at that time.
Foreigners should be given preferential treatment, except for exams, or buy air tickets to go back to China for vacation. Of course, the date can be flexible.
