Post Middle Eastern flight training academy recommendation

Flying was always my dream since I was small, and I've just completed my A levels as a Chinese foreigner and about to head to Dubai to commit in flight training. Me and my family decided to have 2 choices, either EFTA or Air Arabia flight training academy, which in this case, we actually conducted a consultation before on Air Arabia flight training programs, such that it will spend 2 years on the total training course for MPL license, and it strictly follows a 3 years working contract rule that provides 1500 hours of flight time you need; however I've heard that it is not possible to convert MPL into other credentials, which means you are kinda stranded in the Middle East for pretty much the rest of your life. On the other hand, we haven't really did any interviews on EFTA, we were planning to conduct a visit within a few months, therefore I am collecting all the strong advices from you experienced pilots or cadets to help me out, which I will be extremely grateful to receive some valuable insights.
