True though, getting your own CPL/MEIR at M'sia will be more "affordable", but i guess it'll still incur around S$100k, personal expenses not included.
No part time, full times courses spanning 18months, it's a huge gamble to take. N at the end of it, if u can't get a gd paying flying job, it's really a smack in the face.
At the end of the day, u really gotta ask urself how strong is your passion in this field, it is worth all that trouble
