Is it possible to disable internationalisation in cakephp?

I am running php 5.6 on shared hosting. The host will not install intl and I would have to pay more for a new server. I do not intend to use the cakephp app for anything that requires internationalisation…just an api.
Please anyone out here have similar sentiments. I have been scouring the internet for hours without end…I need to disable this custom php module in cakephpp so I can focus on why I wanted to use cakephp in the first place. Am currently testing out other web frameworks so that if there is no remedy, I will use one of them.

I‘m pretty happy with Intl Plugin from CakeDC: https://github.com/CakeDC/Intl

My hoster also denies installation of php-intl
