I have observed that prominent institutions here in the Philippines continue to internationalize to pursue global excellence. I have been in a few classes where the professor is a foreigner and half of the class is from a foreigner partner university.

Additionally, they note that internationalization is in itself highly valued in higher education. Indeed, an international orientation has long been a central aspect of the academic habitus (see also my recent discussion here) and university rankings have recently served as an additional incentive to internationalize.

I’m also always curious about whose English is meant when we “internationalize”. In principle, if English is a truly global language, then it shouldn’t belong to any particular country. Yet the various metrics you’ve pointed to seem largely rooted in US or UK English norms (e.g., journals require ‘nonnative’ speakers of English to have their work checked by a ‘native’ presumably someone from the US or the UK).
